LESSONS AND ANSWERS

I spent a good chunk of today just sitting in my big chair up in my bedroom, staring out over the greenbelt and to the mountains beyond.

Part of me just felt numb, not knowing what to think or how to feel. I cried some. I prayed, not only asking God to help me get through this, but asking him why he decided to allow this to happen to me. And I stared, waiting to hear the answers to my questions.

But I know enough about God to know that I wasn’t going to get all those answers right away. I also know enough though to know that God wants me to learn something through all of this.

Maybe as I look for the lessons God wants to teach me, I’ll find the answers I’m looking for.
