"But I do not believe my faith is being tested. What faith I have left."

Shalom, that is a bit of a contradiction. "Your faith is being tested" and even though he slay you, yet YOU will trust him.

We first started talking years ago- on New Years eve or maybe Christmas eve. When I read the faith of your words- my whole body shuttered with goose bumps as I felt the power of The Holy Spirit course through me. From that moment on, even though I have at times taken my little problems out on you when we had disagreement about the End Times I still honored and respected you. For who and what you were and still are.

You can blame the circumstances that led up to his death. That may not be something that you can touch or grab hold of. We are all appointed once to die. Who are we to question the purposes of God? The Early Church leaders looked forward to death and a better life in the presence of God.

And old saying is, "Everybody wants to go to Heaven but nobody wants to die!" I would never attempt to not allow you your grieving and anger- You can't see it but I can tell you that surely it will pass. God will comfort you when it is the time for you to be comforted. THIS I KNOW!

Men who God chooses seem to be wrung out until every ounce of pride is gone and only humility remains. Does God do this thing through blessings? No, he does it through the Cross he give you to carry; and carry it you will.

Praying for you every day.

His grace is sufficient.

James
