Every year around the time of my birthday, the circumstances drive me to a listening point, as if to remind me how inadequate I am, how much I need the divine love of God.
Only divine love will never fail me. Oh that this trial would strengthen and develop my faith so I can fully rest in the peace of Christ.
Uncertainty. Pain. And I'm supposed to rejoice in it.
God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pain: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.
The Lord gives and the Lord takes away. Blessed be the name of the Lord.
