Bitterness Against God

Trust in His righteousness.

Can I say that the above statement is one of the hardest thing a person can do? Someone who has indeed trusted in the worst of situations, that person has greater faith, and his or her place higher than mine, because I trust at a time when everything was alright.

Sometimes I ask myself, do I really understand the unimaginable burdens in their hearts? I wish I can. How do you live with something of that monstrous importance? Life and death, an eternity of bliss and an eternity of hell. The odds are too great for the human mind to imagine the only reasonable solution is to repent, and believe.

To trust in God's righteousness even in things that we would like to refuse to accept: that demands great, strong faith. Mine is that of a mustard seed.

Sometimes I imagine what I would do if God placed me in a different situation. I imagine that as Lewis was the most reluctant convert, so will I be the most bitter person against Him.

May His unfailing love, a love that surpasses all understanding, give you peace and joy even in your burdens.
