God Cares About You
There once was a woman who lived a quiet life. A good life with her husband and son in a city called “Nain.” One day her husband died and she was left alone with her only son. She mourned her husband for a long time and then got back around to the business of her life. It wasn’t the same though. Before “the day” she had comfort, companionship, and abundance.
