life and death
Coming Face to Face with Life
Bernie to God:
Dear God, I'd be interested to know what You have to say to those with serious illnesses. What words of wisdom do You have for those facing life-threatening illnesses?
God to Bernie:
Beloved son, what do you expect Me to say that has not already been said a thousand ways? What answer will satisfy? What answer in common language can be enough?
Your God-Given Life
You would not seek safety unless you were concerned with danger. Concern for safety does not make you safer.
In terms of the relative, all of life is a risk. You are often afraid to take risk, even though it is inevitable. You will gamble at cards, but you think risks in life are too high and, therefore, dangerous.
Rather than think of risk and danger, think of the One Who holds you high above the fray.
