I am frequently experiencing doubting times in my life. The doubts come at odd times. Usually not in troubling times. Mostly in times when I am free of pain and agonies and have the clearness to be thinking on the workings of things. Doubting Thomas is very real for me. Show me, Lord, is just about where I am a lot of the time. And with the 'show me' comes, WHY. I am many times into the whys. And sometimes even wherefores.
Why, Lord, are there hungry children? Why, Lord, are homophobics allowed to exist? Why is there so much cruelty and hurt and killing? Why aren't we all one color or even better, WHEN will we all be one color? When will there be heaven on earth -- I know it will happen, WHEN?
