Chapter 3: Your Kingdom Come
IS DOUBT A SIN? “Lamenting is not a sin. It doesn’t display a lack of faith or trust. It reveals the opposite: a deep and abiding trust, however faint, however shaken, however wounded, in a God who hears the cries of God’s children.”
Emotions and Faith.
PATIENT ENDURANCE AND GOD’S WILL.
Suffering. “ “I can only endure.” It shows us that patient endurance doesn’t mean the rejection of lament. It might mean its embrace. Sometimes, the only way we can endure is through lament.”
SOMEDAY: A LAMENT FOR THE IN-BETWEEN TIMES. We live between the old age and new age. The now and the not-yet.
All Creation Groans.
