I have been reading Crazy Love written by Francis Chan and it is InCrEdIbLe! I love it!
Back in the first chapter, I came across this thought provoking statement that really spoke to me...
Psalm 115:3 reveals, "Our God is in heaven, he does whatever pleases him." Yet we keep on questioning Him: "Why did you make me with this body? Why are so many people dying of starvation? Why are there so many planets with nothing living on them? Why is my family so messed up? Why don't you make yourself more obvious to the people that need you?"
The answer to each of these questions is simply this: b/c He's God. He has more of a right to ask us why so many peoploe are starving. Could it be your arrogance that makes you think God owes you an explanation?
This spoke to me b/c throughout our ordea with Kambell's seizures I have begged this question many times. This has been so eye opening to me and has rendered me speechless.
I am speed reading this book, but already have plans to re-read it upon completing the book and pick it apart. Before reading this I also read Radical, but that particular book didn't speak to me like this one. I highly recommend CrazyLove!
