"He has taught me that like the Who in Horton Hears a Who, we are on a little speck and there's a whole other world out there, a whole cosmic battle that rages on around us. He has taught me that even if I don't understand, that He is fighting, that His angels are fighting, and that one day He- and all of His goodness and love- will win... "

"When you hit this speed bump- when a friend dies, when a baby suffers, when the curse that we're under shows itself massively in your world and the vileness of sin and evil's consequences sock you in the stomach and take your breath away- you can choose to end the conversation with God, running away from Him in anger and hurt and pain, or you can choose to cling to Him. Please don't run away. If you're going to fall on a side of the fence- trusting God or not trusting God- fall on the side of faith. Choose to trust God. Continue the conversation. If you're angry with Him about something, please tell Him about it. When you lose something, please do cry and tell Him how much it hurts. Because what is going on here is wrong, just so wrong. Please do ask God questions- even the hard ones, especially the hard ones. Pour out your heart like water to Him. But do choose to stick with Him... The Master Commander will sweetly zoom in on your little speck of a rocking world and wrap His arms around you- the battle wounded- and hold you. And I have found that that is enough, that He is enough, in spite of it all."
