LONELINESS -E.Elliot-
"Safe in the arms of Jesus".
...But safety as the cross shows does not exclude suffering. All that was course beyond me when I was a child but as I began to learn about suffering. I learned that “trust” in those strong arms means that even our suffering is under control. We are not doomed to meaninglessness. A loving purpose is behind it all, a great tenderness even in the fierceness. A simple assumption: God wants us to be happy. It´s indeed true, but in a much deeper way than we think.
…understand that that love (of God) revealed on the Cross, does not excludes but “must always include suffering”.
The only way she could learn trust and obedience was to have things happen wich she could not understand. That is where faith begins –in the wilderness, when you are alone and afraid, when thing don´t make sense…GOD LOVES YOU. He loved you enough to die for you. Will you trust Him?
Oh my love, you are amaizing... Love you!!!
"I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I put my hope." Psalms 130:5 (NIV)
