Living in Truth

"Just because I work incredible good out of unspeakable tragedies doesn't mean I orchestrate the tragedies. Don't ever assume that my using something means I caused if or that I need it to accomplish my purposes. That will only lead you to false notions about me. Grace doesn't depend on suffering to exist, but where there is suffering you will find grace in many facets and colors."
- God speaking to Mack in The Shack

I am constantly learning what it means to live in God's truths. Right now I am focusing on living in the truth that He purposes good in all things, but doesn't need things to happen to achieve His purpose.

So much has happened in my life recently that I struggle with. Between difficult decisions and challenging deaths, I have struggled to live in the truth of His goodness. I am learning that it is a choice I need to make everyday and sometimes repeatedly throughout the day. I am seeing many different facets and colors of His grace being displayed in my life.
