I don't normally write two blogs in one week.
When the Spirit whispered this morning that I need to write this blog NOW, I flinched...
My first thought was, "But I have already written one blog this week! No one is going to want to hear from me again!"
And then He reminded me that it's not me who writes these blogs, but Him.
Ouch.
So, this morning I was playing catch-up in the book we use for Wednesday night Bible study: The Good and Beautiful God - falling in love with the God Jesus knows.
Now don't abandon me here...I'm not going to go all preachy on you.
But I am going to entice you to do some thinking as you move throughout your day...
With eyes wide open and an expectant heart.
As I wrote in a previous blog this week, times of sorrow and loss and challenge can hit us in the gut and leave us reeling...
And wondering, "Where is God in the midst of this?"
Good question.
The answer comes in knowing God...His nature...who He is.
Faith is not blind...we do not hand over earthly treasures to someone we do not know.
That is called foolish.
In the same way, we cannot trust a God we do not know.
How can we know God is good, when all around us we see brokenness and pain and suffering?
But what else do we see?
It depends what we are looking for...
