"Those most filled with grace are usually those who've traveled most deeply into the depths of their own dark soul...and emerged holding the hand of Jesus." (Gary Black)
Dear God~I admit it. I do not understand. I have seen some suffer continually while others live comfortably. I have seen kind people live in agony while unkind people enjoy excellent health. I have seen some speak of You as they deliberately hurt others. I have seen others genuinely show Your love as others hurt them. I have seen so much in this life that I wish I had not seen. I have not seen what I so wish I had. I cannot make sense of the cruelty, injustice, inconsistency and suffering in this world.
And then...I remember. Your Son suffered. Your Son was perfect yet tortured. Your Son loved but was sentenced to death while a criminal was set free. Dear God, I do not understand. But I do understand that You love. May my questions in this life be embraced with Your sweet, authentic, peaceful, precious, never-ending love. I do not understand. You do. Thank You for your forgiveness, grace, mercy, hope and genuine love. You are more than enough for me.♥~thl
