Feeling punished by God is as old as time. The story's been told in the bible. Job is a victim of suffering he cannot understand. He loses everything. Through it all he does not lose faith in God although he questions God and asks why he is being punished. God restores his soul and life with bounty.
I was in a state of pain, darkness and anguish when I went to my first Alanon meeting. Alanon saved my life. I discovered that while pain
is a part of life, suffering is optional.
