Suffering

Words from Fenelon:
“Choke back in my heart all that rises up to question Your goodness. Let me sit in silence before You, and then I will begin to understand.”

Yes, pour out your heart like water in the presence of the Lord (Lamentations 2:19). Like Jesus the Perfect One, cry out and ask that this cup of suffering pass from you. But then sit in silence before Him (Lam. 3:28). He has ordained your suffering – do you believe this? These present sufferings aren’t worth comparing to the glory that will be revealed (Romans 8:17,18). Be patient and wait on Him(Lam. 3:26). He is good, so good, even in this.
