It has been a slow and painful journey to get to the point where I believe God is able, and willing to be involved in my life. For so long I thought my life was a constant stream of trivialities, not befitting audience with the King of Glory. I imagined Him quickly taking a passing glance at my life and moving on to more important things.
All this changed when my wife and I suffered a huge and terrible loss. A very present help in the time of trouble is what He became to us. Like the beggar on the street we cried out "If you are willing, you can make me whole". To which Jesus responded without hesitation "I AM willing...". We are not out of the woods yet, but we have no doubt that He is willing, over and above being able. Despite the tragedy, I am grateful He gave us the chance to trust in Him, and, despite the fact that things didn't work out as we would have liked, He remained there for us.
