“What possibly can sustain us except to believe that God is here – real and active in our life? There are those who say faith in God is a crutch for the weak; a substitute for one’s inability to cope in a complicated world or with their own life situations – God is just a copout to get a break from reality.
My answer is I am weak. I am unable to cope with a complicated world and my own life situations. I do need a break from reality.
And because of these personal weaknesses, I don’t have the creativity or energy to “imagine” God being here --- if I had those resources I could hold on to any idea I chose including my own powerfulness.
Instead I am falling into the abyss only to discover I am not destroyed. I have landed in the Everlasting Arms. I am sort of surprised to find this unexplainable thing to be true. I am somehow not afraid. In fact I am as positive and focused and ready for the next adventure as I have ever been. “
