Indigoes Around

“How many times have I asked the heavens, ‘Carest thou not that I perish?’ or ‘How canst thou lie asleep?’ Perhaps the Savior could have just answered the question. That He cares. That the boat won’t sink. But instead, he arose and said unto the sea, ‘Peace, be still.’ And there was a great calm. The disciples wanted to know if the Savior cared. The Savior gave them peace in the storm. When I’ve asked, ‘How come I have to deal with this particular situation in my life?’ I don’t usually get the answer I expect. And I probably wouldn’t appreciate it if I did. If God answered all my questions with a spoken-word answer, it probably wouldn’t always reach me or suffice my need. The facts of the matter aren’t always what I need, even though it’s what I think I want. Instead, there is a great calm. The answer is simply peace.” – Liz Stitt
