Life Interrupted - by death Give God an Inch...

    • Christianity

There are moments in life when we are stopped short by death. Death of a loved one. Death of a dream. Death of a way of life. 
We can’t explain to you why bad things happen (but people always try). This is a mystery that humanity has wrestled with since we could think big thoughts. But what we can believe, is that our God, who doesn’t make tragedy happen, does not have shallow words of comfort but goes into the depths of grief and pain and fear. And anger. And meets us there with compassion. Compassion: to feel with.
