What do I regard as one key transition point in the Christian journey? Being at peace with the paradox that God loves me while He does not rescue me from the suffering of living in a fallen world that brings suffering to me and those I love. “One thing God has spoken, two things have I heard: that you, O God, are strong, and that you, O Lord, are loving” Psalm 62:11-12). God delays making this right because He wants all to be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 2:3).
