Smiling

I don't quite know how people live without faith.  I don't know what I would do if I did not have options.  The one thing I know about God is that he never runs out of options and because of that, I never run out of options.  Recently, I spent some time in the hospital faced with people who looked like they were at the end of their road.  I wanted to lean over and ask them if they had tried Jesus.  I don't know where I would be without Jesus.  The best part of salvation, in Him, is that the sun is always coming over the horizon.  Tomorrow can always be a better day.  The rain can always stop or the drought can always end.  I believe suicide happens because they can see no way out.  Even if God sat on his throne and did nothing, there is still that possibility and that is comforting.  At least in his killing, he can kill me softly.  Life still has that glimmer like the moonlight on a still pond.  In the midst of a warzone, you can smile and .....................I am smiling.
