I dont often feel as speechless as I do today, at the stunning news of the sudden transition of my beloved sister and friend Lihle Sowazi. Where was God in the tragic death of one of His beloved daughter? This is a tender and volatile time in the Charismatic and Pentecostal religious world, as people ponder the wisdom, ethics or perhaps just the diplomacy of a perceived personal God, who makes personal decisions about who goes or stays, when and how... Was her sudden death the judgment of God? Was it reckless more than risky faith? Or was it just her time to go, and if so, why so violently or with such presumed indignity? What can or should we learn from this unsettling, unnerving and unfortunate reality? Scriptures says who has known the mind of the Lord, that we may instruct him, but we have the mind of Christ.” Wonderful passage of scripture, but it would appear that, at least on this particular decision, our minds may indeed be in conflict with the presumed mind of Christ. Do you presume this to be your Gods personal choice or decision, or was this just a freakish accident and sudden act of nature? Are you questioning the wisdom of God to feel disappointed in what many, as a last confusing resort, to be the will of God? At times like these, I dont try to figure things out, I just know that all things ultimately figure into a larger and higher Purpose that we may never fully understand in this present limited reality. All things ultimately work in concert for and toward an ultimate good! The clock and calendar can prove, disprove, approve and improve anything. Time is always on our side. Honor and respect it regardless.
