Truthful

Having been a missionary it is so good to hear Elisabeth Elliot express her frustrations with glossing over of hard truths and the defense of how God in his sovereignty sometimes doesn't work and move the way we thought he would. We continue to worship and love through unexplained loss, failure and hardship that tests our faith. Because He is God and He deserves our abandonment to Him. We are free to love Him with out having to gloss over the rough things, free to love Him because we trust Him. Free to love Him without having to paint a different picture than what is. He can defend Himself.
