If you are only allowed one question
that you can ask
GOD what would it be? And what if GOD never answered you
in the way that you wanted HIM to answer~
then would that really be a question or a test? Hmm.
Think about it.
Why do bad things happen to good people? Why don't YOU mend this relationship? Why did _______ have to suffer so much? Why am I depressed when I am following YOU? Where are YOU when I need YOU? Why did YOU even create apples when you knew Eve would eat one? BUT then GOD answers in a way that is so absurd for all to believe~
in a way HE flunks your test ,
so you move on to another something or someone
to find the answers to the questions of life.
BUT
you still can't find the right answers.
Therefore you become more frustrated then before.
BUT then it happens because
GOD
never stops pursuing you
even though
HE
doesn't have the exact answer that you think you want or need.
BUT BECAUSE
you are at your wits end
you look up & listen
with your whole heart & mind
&
everything starts to make sense
BUT
in an absurd way
that is so simple
that you want to complicate it~
JESUS! A NAME that is used so loosely. A NAME that's too religious for me. A NAME that is used for holidays twice a year. And yes,
if you think of
JESUS
as just a name
then just a name HE is.
BUT
if you make
JESUS
the answer to all your questions
then you will have your answers.
BUT JESUS~ "These things I have spoken to you so that in ME you may have peace.
In the world you have tribulation,
but take courage; I have overcome the world” (John 16:33)
BUT TAKE COURAGE
Because
JESUS has overcome the world.
JESUS is in control,
For the victory is HIS!
And if HE is for us, doesn't it soften the blow
that even though in this world we will experience difficulties
we don't have to coward back
because JESUS has our back.
IF JESUS IS THE ANSWER~
THEN WHAT IS YOUR QUESTION?
Oh "TAKE COURAGE"
