The hits won't stop coming...

Ever feel that perhaps God has abandoned you, or is maybe even out "to get" you?

If so, then this post is for you: Oh God, why are you doing this to me?!



For full disclosure, this post was inspired by my upcoming series through Ruth.

We have a significant number of government civilians in our organization. After news of the "failed" last minute "efforts" to avoid sequestration, I sent a slightly modified/specified version of this post to everyone in my unit who I know is at least a church goer - after all, through no fault of their own they are now faced with a 20% reduction in pay for the remainder of the fiscal year. One of them wrote back and told me to "stuff it" because he "wants to be angry."

I am not trying to be a kiss up but your blog has seriously been a blessing to me. It is almost as if each post was tailored to me and I have truly appreciated your gentle but firm approach to these issues. This post was such a balm to my distrustful and angry heart.

My own heart is much the same way, Eric. Fortunately God's grace is bigger.

In case anyone is interested...

This post was inspired by my sermon preparation for the sermon I preached today. That sermon has been uploaded to the resources page of my site and is the one on the top. "Abandoned and Afflicted?" Ruth 1:1-22.
