We love, therefore hurt from rejection; we trust, and are torn by betrayal; we hope, and will be disappointed; we choose faith, thus opening ourselves to doubt.
I am wounded more deeply than I thought by the happenings in church; yet as a shepherd myself I must take care of my sheep and be strong for them. I guess times like these call for faithful men to anchor people onto truth and love - I will be such a man.
Eventually there will/must be an accounting; surely in the church of all places there can be forgiveness and reconciliation. I will wait for that day.
O Lord, help me to love though I feel it not.
