These few days of rest, gave me a lot of space for my family and also, myself.
I was reading The Shack. Its been a long while since I last have time and mood to enjoy a fiction story. I learnt a lot of things that I believed God has spoken to me. Just wanna share some here:
What has affected your pride, should not affect your love.. Unless you allowed it.
When God work incredible good out of unspeakable tragedies, it doesn’t mean He orchestrates the tragedies.
Grace doesn’t depend on suffering to exist, but where there is suffering you will find grace in many facets and colors.
Sometimes tears, are the best words the heart can speak.
***
I envy the man in the story who can eat, drink, and even sup with the Lord. It made me teared during the reading, fully understanding the pain that he had struggled with, something that I believed all of us are facing it.
The author had expressed out clearly the struggles of a man & the answers of Jesus Christ, Holy Spirit, and God (The Trinity).
Now I feel that I can too, become the child I never was allowed to be. Addressing God as Papa! I hope to bear in mind that in Love, there shouldn’t be any need for authority, obedience, or even expectation. To really understand what I’ve just said, one really needs to read The Shack.
