"I do not follow a God that I understand.
I do follow a God that understands me.
Who understands wrenching pain and searing loss....
A God who is intimately familiar with the raw, howling, soul-wrenching bone-weary keen of grief.
In the mist of it,
I am grateful for the God that has been in hell.
I am grateful for the God that has been in hell.
Who triumphantly walked through it and shattered the chains off the gates and declared it FINISHED so that death would not be the end..."
Right when you think you can contain God in a box,
and you get flustered or frustrated
or maybe even a little bit bored..
He surprises you with very truthful words on the interweb.
awesome.
