Their Suffering

I see their suffering, I know how their hearts break. It is this pain and trauma that they endure that causes my spirit to wither. Is my in-unison suffering a cross I must bear? Must I be further burdened by the knowledge that my suffering does nothing to ease theirs? What else can I do to make their load lighter? How else may I end their suffering, replace it with innocence and make it the suffering the sinful person I am surely deserves? How do I endure these things I seek with a smile on my face and joy in my heart? How do I not not turn the blessing that is this cross into sin?
