Waking to Reality

While my husband was getting ready for work one morning, he called me

into the bedroom. When he called, I ran to see what he needed. He said he

wanted to tell me something about God. “Okay?” I said. I was not sure

where this was going. He went on to say that God really didn’t love him. I

stopped him and told him he was so wrong about that. Those words came

out with fear and trembling. But he shook his head and then he went on,

“God disciplines those he loves, but I have gotten away with everything,”

then he stopped, looked coldly in my eyes and continued, “Everything but

murder.” Then he slowly and quietly looked away as if to dismiss me.
