I admit — I’m like you. Sometimes disappointed with His timing. . .but still trusting that He knows what’s best for me. Maybe it’s just a faith-stretching moment. I don’t know. If your new friend gets a job transfer to Nashville in the next couple of months, what will you think then?

Thanks for the thoughts. As I thought about it the first impulse I had was to defend God and to explain away your feelings. In spite of the fact that I went through a similar situation a couple of years ago and had the same sort of feelings. We have a hard time reconciling God’s goodness with our perception of what good is.

I have other thoughts racing through my mind right now, but I won’t take up anymore of your space with them. Thanks again for your thoughts.

Not everyone admits it. I’ve no great words of wisdom. The psalmist did complain about God to God too, so there is nothing new about what you are feeling. There is some benefit to keeping prayers of complaint just that: prayers nonetheless.

By the way, it says plan for hope and a future…not necessarily a husband…

I don’t have time right now – I have to go out and buy some flowers for my wife.

Self-absorption is the phrase that comes to my mind. How often I whine about what I don’t have, instead of being grateful that God has been treating me better than I deserve all along.
