Things dont́ always work out the way we want them to, or the way we think they will. Sometimes we dont́ even see it coming. We get hit with some form of pain out of nowhere leaving us feeling desperate and helpless. Thatś the way life is. Still, it makes us wonder how God can let these things happen to us. How God can just stand by and watch us suffer? Where is God when it really hurts? Maybe God is actually closer to us than we think. Maybe itś when weŕe in these situations, where everything seems to be falling apart, that God gets an opportunity to remind us of how much he really loves us. NOOMA is a new format for spiritual direction. It is short films touching on issues that we care about, that we want to talk about, and it comes in a way that fits our world. It's a format that's there for us when we need it, as we need it, how we need it..
