Beyond Horizons

Hullo all, my readers, I am sorry I have been so long away from writing you truths from God's Word. I was, infact, detained for a short time. And for those of you wondering, I am sadly no longer engaged to be married. I wish it were not so, but such is life. As a short side note, I no longer hold "Betrothal" as a valid or Biblical system for Holy Matrimony in our present culture.

Now, indeed, while the circumstances that weigh my heart so, and yet free me to write you, seem so very dire and dark, they also speak of God's wonderful and merciful Sovereignty. I had the joy to be encouraged and exhorted by a godly pastor in this dark hour who reminded me that times such as these will try our belief in God's Holy Word; in God's very Sovereignty. My dad has said as much also many a time that we must have faith in that God is working Sovereignly in our hard times. If we truly believe in God's Sovereignty, then we will know that God not only allows bad things in our lives, but verily brings them according to His preordaination. In short, he planned for this tragic incident in my life. Why, you ask. I don't know and we don't always know why God does so and so and such and such, but who are we, oh man, that we challenge God!? Rather, instead of trying to justify God or find purpose for our difficulties like a puffed up Job, we should look for the right and good in these circumstances. We should ask ourselves, How we can grow from our circumstances? What has the Lord taught us? How can I use this new found brokenness in the glory of God. So in the end, we praise a mighty and loving God! Thus we look beyond the horizon to the Cross!
