I have his book called “Suffering and the Sovereignty of God” and this is a part of one chapter. The book is a compilation from different authors on suffering. There is an excellent chapter in the book by Joni Eareckson Tada.

I recently read another Piper book, When the Darkness Will Not Lift: Doing What We Can While We Wait for God—and Joy. The title intrigued me, and it is an excellent book for anybody, but especially if someone is dealing with depression or the emotional aspects of suffering.

I’m still looking for the answer to how God can let innocents and other sweet people suffer the most horrible fate.

The only answer I can come up with is that God just helps us get through what happens to us on earth and this makes our lives a little more bearable.
