i ask god why

people wanna take my life always want me to die for i know i’ve told a thousand lies but i know you’re truly on my side i learned a lot throughout my entire life why the same people that follow you don’t even follow you say they believe in christ jesus knows that’s another lie sit in church look at the people know who’s truly there for you some people try to deceive you and they only want control of you to disorient the masses make the whole world slow just like molasses
the devil wants to be sifted like wheat. to enter into crisis is to be sifted. your categories and ways of thinking get shaken up; your priorities and lifestyles are challenged. you cross a threshold, either by your own choice or by necessity, because there are crises, like the one we’re going through, that you can’t avoid

the question is whether you’re going to come through this crisis and if so, how. the basic rule of a crisis is that you don’t come out of it the same. if you get through it, you come out better or worse, but never the same
we are living in a time of trial. the bible talks of passing through the fire to describe such trials, like a kiln testing the potter’s handiwork
(sirach 27:5). the fact is that we are all tested in life. it’s how we grow
in the trials of life, you reveal your own heart: how solid it is, how merciful, how big or small. normal times are like formal social situations: you never have to reveal yourself. you smile, you say the right things, and you come through unscathed, without ever having to show who you really are. but when you’re in a crisis, it’s the opposite. you have to choose. and in making your choice you reveal your heart

think of what happens in history. when people’s hearts are tested they become aware of what has held them down. they also feel the presence of the lord, who is faithful, and responds to the cry of his people. the encounter that follows allows a new future to open up

in times of crisis and tribulation, when we are shaken out of our sclerotic habits, the love of god comes out to purify us, to remind us that we are a people. once we were not a people; but now we are god’s people. the closeness of god calls us together. “thou hast made me known to friends whom i knew not,” writes the poet “thou hast brought the distant near and made a brother of the stranger” this time for action asks us to recover our sense of belonging, the knowledge that we are part of a people. what does it mean, to be “a people”? it is a thought cate*gory, a mythical concept, not in the sense of a fantasy or a fable but as a particular story that makes a universal truth tangible and visible
