The last couple of weeks in my life have been a little trying to say the least.
As most of you know my mother has been in the hospital the past couple of weeks and when someone close to you experiences something sudden like sickness it can really rock your world.
I remember something that Nancy Ortberg wrote in her book “Looking for God” when she was talking about pain. Now I’m not talking about physical pain, but the pain of something happening that just doesn’t seem fair. The kind of pain that many of us experience when something very unexpectedly happens.
“The problem of pain always insists on the question, “Where is God?”
Have you ever experienced pain in a situation in your life that has caused you to ask that question?
If so, how did you handle it?
