Let It Out

In our culture, sadness is often seen as something to hide or suppress. Many people feel pressured to "put on a happy face" and pretend everything is fine, even when they are struggling. However, the Bible teaches us that sadness is a natural and necessary part of life. In Ecclesiastes 3, Solomon reminds us that there is "a time to be sad." Just as God created joy, He also created sadness, and when we embrace it rather than suppress it, we can experience healing, renewal, and even a deeper connection with Him.
