I wrote this in December & it spoke to me this morning. Thot i’d share it….
The past few weeks have been full of bad, sad news. I look back and wonder. I question, I cry and I just cannot make sense of it all. Perhaps, I am not meant to. So many questions are on my mind but the answers are hidden and one wonders.
Why? Is the big question but I have no choice but to remain content with unsatisfying answers or plain silence. Its useless to cry, apart from a release of pent up emotion, nothing can be changed.
Reading the last chapter of Job helped me put the circumstances in perspective. His words:
Job 42:1-6 Then Job answered the LORD, and said, I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee. Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not. Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me. I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee. Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.
Truly who am I to question the Almighty? Who am I to try and unravel his mind? I repent for He alone is Lord. My solace is that this same God cares for little me, He knows the number of hairs on my head, He cares for me and at such times he has promised, that he will never leave me nor forsake me. He is with me! This is enough.
