The Woes of God


I am sick

Not just in a sinful perverse human kind of way

But physically ill.

There are many drawbacks of being sick that really get me down.

I can't exercise even though the weather is perfect for the first time this spring.

I can't help Sarah around the house

I can't help the teens load up the skateboard ramps

I can't do many of the things make spring so amazing

But none are as bad as the separation from my family

I can't hug, kiss and hold Sarah and Jude like a husband and father should.

It is this fact above all else that makes me despise my condition.

In times like this, I think I can see a little bit into the heart of God.

Maybe this is why God hates sin so much, because it separates Him from us...

HIS CHILDREN

I long to be well so that I can be close to my family

I long to be whole so that I can be one with my Father.
