Father Ed Broom reminds us that we must be very honest with God and that includes telling Him what is bothering us. We all have sufferings in our lives–tough times, tough days, tough hours–when we’re left with mysteries, questions, enigmas. Sometimes the best prayer if said with simplicity, humility and reverence is: “Lord, why is this happening to me? I can’t seem to get through this.” God never tires of listening to us. Indeed He has compassion for us in all our needs.
