A Light In The Darkness

Last Friday, like most of you, I was watching as the news of the attacks on the city of Paris began to unfold. When these things happen, I end up with a lot more questions than I do answers – why does this happen? Who would do this? Why does God allow this? In these moments, it’s easy to dwell on my questions and on all the evil in the world, but I must choose to lean in and remember: we serve a God who still shines light in the darkest of places.

What I’m learning and am trying to instill in my kids is that more important than trying to figure out why things like this happen, is that it matters how we are living our life while we still have it.

We don’t get to choose how we die, but we do get to choose how we live, so choose well.
