Deut. 32:3-4

"I will proclaim the name of the Lord. Oh praise the greatness of the Lord. He is the rock. His works are perfect, and all His ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is He."

I am meditating on these verses. My biggest struggle as a Christian is being disappointed in God. I shouldn't be the first to blame Him when things go wrong, I should be the first to GO to Him when things go wrong. I look at this world and think how can an all-loving God allow so much pain and suffering to take place? A very wise pastor once said, "It is not our job to decide what makes sense in this world." I am trying to read these verses with confidence. Confidence that no matter what happens in my life or in the lives of those I love, God is truly faithful and his works are truly perfect. Perfection does not mean it will always feel good or make sense. Perfection means God works for the good of those who love Him. So with that said I am praying that tomorrow will bring good. I pray that throughout her pain and suffering out of it will come healing and a deeper faith in the One who created her. Kate...I love you.
