I believe that you have full power and authority over the world - TopicsExpress



          

I believe that you have full power and authority over the world and its evil, Lord, but I am unsure how that operates in light of its seeming absence.... You stop the mouth of lions, yet the lion’s den is present; you heal the sick, yet we bury our dead; you say we are saved, yet much within us remains broken... My faith tries to see beyond the pale of this temporal world and its shadows, yet I am still bound by it, still subject to its vanity, still in a place of exile. When I look for you here, in this moment, I find my heart homesick and yearning; I seek your face... I call you father but I feel orphaned in this world... It is not why I suffer that I want to know, Lord, but whether I suffer for you.
