The Blessings we Miss

Our hurt drags us half pass the point of giving up. Though some of us, don't even need the hurt to give up. "But why God? Why did you put me there at that time? What did that young man do to be killed only minutes away from his home? Why couldn't the family have smelt the smoke that led them to their untimely death?" We ask these questions with such confusion in our hearts. This same confusion that blinds us from God's love, and binds us from receiving all the blessings that He has in store for us. We all have our purpose under the sun. The minute we forget this very fact, is the minute we become enslaved to a life full of hopeless wounders and doubt. Where would we be if our Savior asked these questions: But why Father? Why do you tell me to carry such a heavy burden, for those who do not love you? Why do I have to make such a sacrifice to those who only wish to remove your name? Why couldn't we just leave such a wicked world to wait for their untimely death?...Let us not mourn for those who are now at rest. Holding our heads up high until we meet again, away from the wages of sin, hurt, and everlasting stress.
