UPDATE:: This preview is available now, though:

“Description: Things don’t always work out the way we want them to or the way we think they will.  Sometimes we don’t even see it coming.  We get hit with some form of pain out of nowhere leaving us feeling desperate and helpless.  That’s the way life is.  Still,  it makes us wonder how God can let these things happen to us.  How can God just stand by and watch us suffer?  Where is God when it really hurts?  Maybe God is actually closer to us than we think.  Maybe it’s when we’re in these situations, where everything seems to be falling apart, that God gets an opportunity to remind us of how much He really loves us.”

It’s worth watching to the end.  Try to imagine the view from the safest place of protection now, from the hiding place, so very close to His heart.

Be blessed in all things.  Jeanie
