ONE THING'S FOR SURE: Life is Uncertain Summary
|
About the Book Life is uncertain. Excuse my gift for the obvious. It is. One minute things are good. They next minute they're not. In an instant, the circumstances in your life can change. Your spouse no longer wants to be married. Your kids won't be coming home. The doctor's report isn't good. Your boss calls in you and gives you the bad news. Your financial portfolio has taken a turn for the worse.again. So you wonder. About yourself. About your circumstances. And even about God. You wonder if things will ever be the same again. And you ask, "What do I do now? So when life is uncertain we do the only thing we know to do: we ask God. We try to hear his voice. But the problem with talking to God during uncertainty is that it's very hard to hear from him. Unfortunately, God doesn't text-message. He doesn't email. He doesn't IM (that's Instant Messaging for you non-computer folks). He doesn't I-chat. God, a lot of times in our uncertainty, is just silent. And it's very easy to confuse his silence with his absence. It's easy to look at other people's lives and circumstances, where God seems to be really, really, really active, and then to look into your own and say, "I don't see Him doing anything." Maybe you asked that special someone for a date and she said, "No." Then your friend called her and she said, "Yes." And he didn't even pray! He just called her, right? Makes you wonder, "God, what's up with that?" Maybe at work, things seem to be going good for everyone else, but you. Your co-workers who don't even believe in God get the raises and the promotions. You ask God about it, there's silence. Or maybe someone you love is sick and as a Christian, you have prayed for God to bring healing. As it stands now, nothing has happened. God doesn't seem interested. And yet, your friend, who doesn't even believe in God, shares the news that her loved one is doing much better. Maybe you're thinking back to time... |
