Don't give up, dear friend. Don't stop praying. Don't stop hoping and believing. God has a perfect plan for a path to a renewed joy and a redeemed future that's probably one you can't even fathom. Trust Him.
@pulte I’d love $500 to replace the food I lost in my fridge & freezer from the ice storm that knocked out our power in Michigan. 😭 Still waiting for restoration.
There are few things I find more wonderful than getting to be present with someone and hear parts of their story. Listening to the things that they’ve experienced and been shaped by.
Your story matters. It’s brought you to where you are.
And it’s not over yet
I am utterly convinced that God will have all kinds of grace if we got the theology wrong. I’m not entirely sure about how God will take it if we got the loving other people, seeking justice, and choosing mercy part of life wrong.
When I desperately want to know why, I remember, Jesus had all the answers and he still wept.
Maybe having the answers for why hurt happens wouldn’t be as comforting as we think it would be.
Maybe not understanding is what grows our faith.
