Life is always presenting problems, but we don’t have to deal with it alone. We can reach out to God and the Christian faithful to help us in our sorrows.

We can pray for others, and the Bible actually encourages us to do so. Even the Disciples and other Biblical writers asked for prayers in their time of need.
