We constantly hear the complaint and question, “Where is God?” When we, the servants of God see the sad, hopeless and abused, especially the children, so does our heavenly father, and in the end they are returned to the love of the most high forever. Adults reach the heavenly gates through a day that becomes progressively darker as evening approaches, then the night. To us the bridge before us as we age seems more and more tenuous and ill-defined, yet we must steadily continue on and persevere to the end. Italians call it ‘OMERTA” to the death. Like Leonidas when he left his young Spartan wife and children to take his small army to the Gates of Fire and die for Greece and God we too must strive upward and onward to whatever end that our God has ordained for us. It may be “Salve Imperator” or it may be “Father forgive them for they know not what they do” or even “Eli, Eli, Eli Sabachthani” on a cross of wood. Wisdom is served by all Her children! –SELAH– WAS
