“Every experience God gives us, every person he puts in our lives, is the perfect preparation for the future that only he can see.” –Corrie Ten Boom

Long Enough

Long enough, God–
You’ve ignored me long enough.
I’ve looked at the back of your head
Long enough. Long enough
I’ve carried this ton of trouble,
lived with a stomach full of pain.
–Psalm 13:1-3 [The Message]

The beauty of the Bible but the Psalms especially are that they are so real. God, why are you so still? Don’t you care? How could you let this happen? You know what I am talking about right? A counselor at my job who lost his sight to diabetes told me the other day, “life is what happens to you when you are going about your plan.” That is so true. We may feel its long enough…the suffering, the pain, the injustices but only God gets to say enough is enough. How I long for that day.
