Astrid, may the Lord help us keep our eyes on the eternal unseen!

Thank you.

I immediately thought of the paradox of evil, which I stumbled on in a philosophical experiment. It is easy to think then that God has abandoned us, but what looks like that, isn’t.

We definitely need to remember, “The cross reminds us—things aren’t always what they seem.” God is working on our behalf. He will never let us down!

GE, I’d forgotten about that lovely hymn. Thank you for reminding me. I felt my heart swell just reading it.

“Tho’ the cause of evil prosper,
Yet the truth alone is strong;
Tho’ her portion be the scaffold,
And upon the throne be wrong:
Yet that scaffold sways the future,
And, behind the dim unknown,
Standeth God within the shadow,
Keeping watch above His own.”

Yvonne, yes He is. May we all personalize His promises.

As crazy as my circumstances are right now, I cling to this: “What looked like the Father abandoning His Son was actually God “in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself” (2 Cor. 5:19 NLT). God was not absent. He was working out the perfect plan He’d set in motion before creation to secure your and my future and hope.” He’s working out the perfect plan in my situation.
