I rage. I scream. I cry.
I’ve asked God ‘why?’ so many times the ‘W,’ ‘H,’
& ‘Y’ on my mental keyboard are certainly entirely worn off. No worries
though. I know those keys by heart.
I don’t get it. I’m pissed… then I’m distraught…
then I’m so overcome with desperate wounded longing that I’m nothing. I’m just
gone.
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made
perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly
about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me – 2 Corinthians
12: 9
We tend to try to cover our doubts and dark places as if they
will somehow make God less God. My faith doesn’t make God ‘Godder’ and my dark
places don’t make Him less. He is my shield not the other way around.
