We all look for the rationalizations to justify death, divorce, sickness, loss, the pains that man, nature or satan can inflict, In that pain we lift our tear stained eyes to God and cry WHY? HOW COULD A LOVING FATHER WITH ALL POWER ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN? Well Ponch, and anyone else who has ever suffered loss, I finally decided These things are simply random acts of nature, reminders of our fraility, our inability to control our lives or destiny, so that we not put our trust in ourselves, in our sinfulhearts, but turn to the Father, abide with him, trust in Him alone, for our ultimate safekeeping. Its not the answer we want when we grieve, but its the only one ive found that makes sense, and when we are troubled, boy, do we need things to make sense! Sincerest condolences, Ponch.

Lack of power...that gets me to thinkin

I've been taught a new way to pray!
When you pray, stop praying the problem and pray the solution.
Don't forget to thank God for solving the problem!

Be blessed everyone,
