Broken lives and independence
In all our lives we face challenges. The Challenge of rejection, betrayal, and broken promises. Going from a time when you think you’re in control to a time that you are out of control is tough. You believe that logic and your own will power will get you through, but what if it can’t? What if all the external support has eroded and you’re left with emptiness? Some of us who have faith would then call on God for help, but such an act would be perceived as being weak and defeatist. But is it really? If you can’t have it your way and are self destructing then aren’t you at the pinnacle of weakness anyway?
Having the experience of counseling a friend of mine has been challenging. I find that I don’t have the answer, but I already know I can’t help better then God can. All we can do is pray that those who deny God, but demand for resolve, will find a way to fill that God-shaped-hole.
