lent.reflections.my world
I'm having a conversation with a friend right now on Facebook chat and he says these words, "My faith has been reduced to some form of soup in the past year. Not anything concrete by any means. But still there. And a part of me wants to pour the bowl out."
This is completely unnerving for me. I'm not sure how to deal with this. Because when I hear that question, my mind races in thousands of directions. I want to start asking questions like, "when?", "why?", "how?". All questions whose answers will lead to other questions.
Everything my friend said in that paragraph was preceded by him telling me about all of the death that he's seeing so close to him. It affects his friends and the people connected to them, which in turn affects him and the people connected to him. It's like his whole world is being turned upside down and he says, "It just makes you question the world and God when things like this happen."
But what is even more unnerving for me is that just moments before this, I was watching this video.

Which of course had me questioning everything about MY world.
My reflections this evening in this season of Lent: my world - how do I interact with it?
