Some days I just cannot understand your plans, God.
When there is senseless loss of life, Lord, why?
When there is tragedy at home or across the world, Lord, why?
When there is heartache, hatred, violence, pain, Lord, why?
What can we learn from life’s distresses?
How can we begin to find logic in the midst of so much strife?
Yet, Lord, were we there when you set the cornerstones of the universe?
No. Of course none of us can understand your ways, whether they lift our hearts or break them.
All we can do is trust in you.
All we can do is believe in your love for us, and we hope one day to spend eternity with you where there will be no more tears.
Amen.
