LOOKING FOR ANSWERS

   

   

            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.
