Wrestlings

"People who read your ideas tend to think that your writings reflect your life."
Henri J.M. Nouwen

How I love to theorize about what makes life work-
" I know the answers I've given them all"

But theory can not override experience-
"But suddenly now I feel so small"

The harsh lessons of life we do not forget-
"Shaken down to the cavity of my soul"

The answers do not come easy when life does not make sense-
"I know the doctrine and theology but right now they don't mean much to me"

Where do I go from here?-
"This time there's only one thing I've go to know. Do I trust you Lord?"

Time will tell.
