Learning to deal with a chronic illness understands that Jesus cares. The God who created the heavens and the Earth empathizes with you.
When dealing with a chronic illness, there are times when we feel no one understands or cares. There is hope. We are not alone.
Jesus cares. In fact, he shares sympathy with you. Jesus knows you. He shares the feelings you have. He is in tune with you. God empathizes with you.
