The key word for the child of God who is focused on praising the Creator is “sacrifice”. To me, the overwhelming pain and and confusion at the tragic loss of my son, Ben, brought me into the deepest, truest level of praise. The praise brought me to a place of peace that simply cannot be explained. A perfect peace. When we are so intent on having the reason for the death of a child, the peace somehow escapes us. Only when we have resolved the “why me” and replaced it with “why NOT me” will comfort fill our hearts and minds. We serve a mighty God.
