God is silent. And I am lost

[Jen7]

Have you read about the loneliness and pain Mother Teresa experiences for her entire life after forming her religious community (decades)? Or the spiritual trials of St. John of the Cross? Perhaps reading some of the saint’s experiences might bring you comfort in this hard time. I’m sorry you’re going through this!!

We in the modern western world have so few examples of how to live through adversity.

Very much this.
A lot of American inspirational literature is about the little ouchies of modern life, and completely unrelatable to people who have been through some serious stuff.
