You think it's hard?

As for God, his way is perfect: The Lord ’s word is flawless; he shields all who take refuge in him. Psalm 18:30 NIV

This is hard. Not like breaking boards hard but way worse! All we know are flawed, imperfect people who even though they mean well will let you down, lie to you, or fail to protect when trouble hits. I'm not judging. I'm saying this because I am one! If you have kids, you know for sure what I'm talking about. There have been times when the world kicked them in the patoosky and there was nothing we could do.

So it takes a huge amount of faith to believe that God's words really are flawless. Some days we feel he's made mistakes and left us twisting in the wind. But it's not a mistake. We are a process, he has us in a process to bring us to full fellowship with him one day. To get there as a human is nigh on impossible so we must trust his process. Well, some days I don't want too. It's hard. It's tough. I want to go back to bed and pretend to not care.

But I do care and I do love him. So I have no choice but to trust. And it will be harder tomorrow but he's preparing me today.
