Navigating Despair with God's Promises // Under The Circumstances, Part 2

Blessings those that keep comandments fear him too Love your neighbor as yourself

I've long followed the teaching in my heart that God is "uncircumscribable" ("aperigraphtos"), that is to say that nothing which can be written or drawn or said with words can ever in any way limit the power of God and his ineffable mysteries. I've never wondered why some circumstance or other happened to me and not to someone else because I've always just assumed that this life was meant for me in particular. But the reliance on this mystery sometimes led me to the purest, disappointed atheism, for I rather believed there was no God than to believe God was somehow cruel... on account of the misfortunes of others... if that makes sense. But when it seemed that everything else failed me, I determined to find out about God, about why he even has a name among us for all these millenia.

@@--ag Thanks. ♥ Lately he's been helping me with Strength which brightens my eyes to see things I didn't want to see. He comes to each in his mysterious way. Joy to the world. ☺

I am such a disappointment to myself and family. Feels like l’ve been chasing God. Prayers go unanswered.

Jesus also felt abandoned by God but never lost faith. Praying for you
