A CRISP VIEW OF GOD

Lord, even when I have trouble all around me, you will keep me alive.

Psalm 138:7


There is a window in your heart through which you can see God. Once upon a time that window was clear. Your view of God was crisp. You could see God as vividly as you could see a gentle valley or hillside.

Then, suddenly, the window cracked. A pebble broke the window. A pebble of pain.

And suddenly God was not so easy to see. The view that had been so crisp had changed.

You were puzzled. God wouldn’t allow something like this to happen, would he?

When you can’t see him, trust him.… Jesus is closer than you’ve ever dreamed.
