Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Sorry for your loss. Words are never enough at times like those.

For me, life these past years is all about the questions. Most of the answers I once embraced are long gone. Uncomfortable but necessary.

Well since I lost my battle (my daughter died) I'm not sure what to think right now. More questions than answers.

Thank you, Bob. I also read some of Heather's other blog entries and I find her words enlightening, refreshing, and painfuly honest. I've been feeling like I am on the verge of a new direction in life, but what that direction may be I do not know. Heather's blog let me know that it's OK not to know.

Hugs to you and Ann! I miss hearing how the two of you are doing.

I'm still bitter about unanswered prayer and trust. If he can only be trusted in spite of any outcome, why bother praying? I still pray but its more like "hoping for the best" rather than expecting anything to change.

Sobering indeed Paul. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing this. Sobering reality. I think she has described the struggle and reality aptly ...
"Because God can’t be trusted to deliver a particular outcome. He can only be trusted with, or in spite of, any outcome. He can only be trusted no matter what."

Yet there is the paradox of real faith and hope rather than despair or bitterness.

Learning to trust God rather than trust what he might do was a lesson I thought I had learned a few years ago. Now, I am having to learn it all over again. It's not easy.
