anything happens

I got this line from the interesting film, Machine Gun Preacher” when Sam Childers expresses this sad reflection, overcome with the cruel injustice he’s witnessing in the Sudan.

I immediately wrote it down in my journal when I heard it because I’ve said this when confronted with incredibly bad news or when going through a crisis.

In the context of suffering words like “God is in control!” make absolutely no sense. Anything happens!

Realizations such as this help us move into a deeper spirituality that embraces Mystery.
