“I have struggled with faith all my life.
My conflict with God intensified with Laura’s illness.
But now I keep thinking back on what you said about us wanting God’s absolute control and life’s absolute freedom.
I never thought of it that way before.
We want two things from God that by their nature cannot exist together.
I’m beginning to see that to have faith does not mean to have all the answers.
Faith is holding on to God in spite of the confusion.”
