Hi Joe,
Re Faith:
I am very angry at God and my "angels" who are supposed to protect me. I am serious about this. I have prayed every single day for the last year for wisdom and help with my finances and I got absolutely none.
Funny "faith" incident.
When I was teaching high school (my favorite I LOVE teenagers they are fascinating but I couldn't get a high school teaching job when I moved to the San Diego area) I had a team teacher and we had one absolutely disruptive awful class. Well one day we were both coming down with the flu or something and were worried about how we were going to get through that hour of the day. So I said "Well when you are afraid, pray about it so let's pray". So we did.
About ten minutes into the period the loudspeaker in our room announed that Eric X was wanted in the office. Then another. Then another. Finally a mother came to the room and said she and her husband had an emergency John X had to come with her.
We were left with NO STUDENTS in the room!
My team teacher turned to me and said
"But if that's how God handles it what are WE supposed to do?"
