While there often are practical ways to show compassion to someone in a trial, the best thing we can say or do is remind someone of what God has done for us in the gospel.
One thing I’ve learned in my fourteen years of motherhood is this: loving our children biblically is inextricably linked to our relationship with God and his love for us. Even when we struggle to love our children, our main problem isn’t that we don’t love them enough but that we ought to love God more.
