I remember trying to suck-it-up and be the joy-centered Christian I’d always been taught to be…

And then learning to really face up to the fears and doubts and anger and… and then just let God have it…

I remember realizing that the prayers of friends and strangers all around the globe may not be making me healthy, but I was certain my faith was strong because of them.

What a gift to be granted great faith in a fearful and sorrowful time… certainly can’t take any credit for something like that.
