“In my experience, Jews don’t have the same pressure to reframe it in a more sanitary context, assuring the sufferer that there’s a higher, holy purpose for this awful situation. Rather, they accept it for what it is. They aren’t afraid to simply say, “That really sucks.” I wish more Christians would realize it’s perfectly okay to say that sometimes. It’s okay to not have answers. Sometimes empathizing, not theologizing, is the most Christ-like response.”
