Why?

The question "why" is racing through my mind right now. I am starting to believe, though, that when we get to Heaven, there will be no need for answers to our questions. With the question "why" comes the pain of the past and the pain of broken relationships. In Heaven, all will be healed. We will be completely reconciled to each other and to our Lord. God will have completed His work in us. We will be so overwhelmed with joy that we will not need answers. If the only answer given to me is, "Well done, good and faithful servant", that will be enough for me. We have more to look forward to than our questions that seem to war against the soul. We have eternity.

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.-2 Corinthians 4:16-18
