And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes. — Revelation 7:17
How does God take away our sorrows?
Here’s a partial list.
He meets the needs someone else should have met but didn’t.
He walks with us through life’s painful events and enables us to see them from His perspective.
He allows us to trade in short term pain for eternal pleasure. Romans 8:18, Psalm 16:11
He satisfies our desires with good things.
Everything intended for evil in our lives gets placed in His hands. There even the most disgusting injustice becomes an opportunity for God to bring good to us. Romans 8:28
