I didn't actually want to make that an assertion. But I do wonder. How do I explain a God who says He provides for all our needs, who says that His people will never beg for food. I can live with being "American Poor." I can't live with a God who lets His people beg for food, unable to meet their obligations, whose children don't have proper clothes and shoes. I can live without cable tv, without the newest video games, the latest fashions. I can live with eating beans and cornbread, rice and hamburger meat. But I don't know who this God is who lets His people beg for food. I can't serve that God, because He isn't the God I was led to believe I should serve. My God supplies all my needs, does exceedingly abundantly above all I could ask or think, blesses even those who bless us. I'M SO LOST!!! I'm so hurt, feel so betrayed! And where is HE? Where is the God who called me to follow? WHY HAS HE ABANDONED ME? I search for Him all day and can't find Him. Sometimes, I turn the radio up loud to try and drown out thinking about Him because it hurts too much. I read the Psalms and hear the same cries poured out over and over as I'm crying, but I can't find comfort in it and I'm so lost. I shouldn't be writing this, but I am. Maybe there are godly people who read this, someone who has an answer. Maybe God will hear your prayers and answer me.Mountainbuildershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16595215405525221163noreply@blogger.com
