Reflections after doing tornado relief in Miss, & Ala: returning after 14 days
So many people avoid pain, they turn off the News when they see those crying to God to save them from destruction. They can't wait until the Casinos reopen. But pain is God's way of getting our attention. Many are the masses on board the endless trains of the faithless and normality for them is survival in a cold and callus world. They would never consider praying to, nor seeking, this normally gentle loving God that selects purposes in every detail. Pride prevents them because they have life figured out for themselves in their cool couth world of self importance. Oh, that people would love and comfort with a profound soul shaking empathy, for that is how God does it through Jesus!
Join in...
Share pain with others
For it is like a controlled forest fire
To clean your forest of dead leaves
In your latent soul.
But if you do not join in,
The fires of opportunity;
When a fire rushes in
Your vulnerable life,
It may burn all completely!
