What to Do When No One Understands You (...

Your Daily Bible Verse
About this episode

Today’s Bible Verse: “He who is at ease holds calamity in contempt, as though disaster were for those whose feet slip.” - Job 12:5

It’s easy to show compassion when life is hard—but what about when we’re comfortable? In Job 12:5, we’re reminded how easy it is for those “at ease” to look down on the struggles of others, forgetting that pain, loss, and setbacks are part of the human story. This verse challenges us to check our hearts, grow in empathy, and recognize that calamity can reach anyone’s door—including our own.
