May your unfailing love be my comfort, according to your promise to your servant. Psalm 119:76
There are times that God's unfailing love is tough to see. When the world encroaches - when bad things happen to good people, even if it is caused by their own choices, we are sometimes left wondering how a loving God could allow such things.
O Father, I am torn this morning. I know Your love never fails. I know You have a plan for Your children, but it's hard to see today. News from a friend has left me confused and angry. Positive for HIV... How could You allow this to happen? Yes, his choices were wrong. But how can You allow his family - his wife and children - to suffer such consequence? Pour out understanding. Pour out Your love. Give me the words to say.
