SUFFERING AND HOPE IN STILL ALICE 75 covering an Alzheimer’s gene, hope in the suffering coming to an end. But is this true hope? For the Christian, cure for disease and reduction in human suffering is always a positive gain. However, hope found on this earth is often temporary and will ultimately lead to disappointment. While a cure for disease could be an answer to prayer, it does not prevent death from ever occurring. The Christian can remain hopeful during immense trials and uncertainty because of the promise that trials are never wasted. True hope is found in the promise that our earthly pain is preparing us for eternity with Christ (Romans 5:1-5).
