All
too often, setbacks drastically change the direction and progress
of our lives. At the time, the rebuffs to our passage seem insurmountable.
We stumble, scratch our knees so to speak, and are often brought
to tears. A feeling of despair and hopelessness makes lead of our
hearts and we question, we look for answers.
The
theme of this work is about man questioning God. We try to find
human reason for these fateful incidents. The answer is that to
find an answer, we would have to know all that God knows. We can,
however, through faith, find the means to accept what befalls us
as being for our better good. What is so difficult is holding on
to that faith long enough to work through our misfortune and find
that greater good. All things happen for a reason and the reason
is not always ours to know. Once having bridged our gulf, it's possible
to look back and see more clearly that things did work out for the
best.
All
we know is the present, the future is out of sight. Faith though
provides strength and gives light to our path for survival over
all that befalls us. It gives us hope, healing and the courage to
start again, and we find the answers.
