I Don't Know Why, But I Know Who.

I've had some good, lengthy, deep talks with some dear friends in the last few months. Some thoughts from then, some things discussed, and some lessons God has been teaching me lately led me to write this. My prayer is that is touches someone's heart. <3 

I don't know why... 

I don't see the purpose in pain and trouble.

I don't know why good people have to experience pain and confusion.

I don't know why some people pray for years for a child of their own, while hundreds of thousands of innocent babies are aborted every year.

I don't understand why some people desire love and marriage so much, and others toss feelings aside like they're nothing.

I don't understand why it seems like some people have it so easy, and some have it so hard.

I don't know why some can see their futures so clearly, while others struggle years to find some direction.

I don't understand why some are called to wait, when they want to move, and some are called to move, when they want to wait.

I don't know why life has to be hard.

I don't know why I wrote this down at all, but I did, so here it is.

But I know who... 

I know Who is with us, in the pain and chaos.

I know Who comforts us in the midst of trouble and grief.

I know Who holds those parents with empty arms and those unwanted babes.

I know Who writes the love and life stories, of every person across the globe.

I know Who is strengthening each of us, in the seasons of trusting and waiting.

I know Who has a purpose for each person that He breathed life into.

I know Who is with us in the good times and the bad times and every moment in between.

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. 

//  Romans 8:28 kjv
