"Confident faith looks less like having simple answers to all questions and more like being able to embrace paradoxical truths: God-and-man, sinner-and-saint, already-and-not-yet. In my life, this looks like embracing both lament and gratitude. I grieve what happened to my family, but I am grateful for how God has met me in it and how he has worked through it. The finer points really belong to him, not me." Such a good scaffolding word of truth, Hannah.
So many good thoughts. Well said.
Thanks Nonni!
