The Love of God Triumphs

Isn't that a beautiful statement?  I loved this when I read it the first time and still do after the sixth.  But, in all truthfulness, isn't it so true?  The love of God triumphs EVERYTHING!!! No matter what struggle you (or I) am going through, or what tragedy happens in the future, or even the amazing news we heard today, God's love triumphs everything.  Sometimes it is very hard to see this when we are in the midst of our storms.  We have questions all the time (much like what we learned in Vespers tonight).  One question we tend to have is Why?  Why would God allow my family to go through what they are going through right now?  Why would God allow a friend of mine who is 22 have Breast Cancer?  Why would people I am close to and who ARE Christians not understand who God can be for them?  Why? 

We may always have questions that need answers to when we are in the midst of something we feel is horrible.  But the coolest part is God's love does triumph even death itself.  If you have not read my previous blogs, I have mentioned a friend of mine who passed away whe she was a freshman in high school.  She loved Jesus with all her heart and thensome.  Her death did not kill what Jesus was for her.  Even in her death she saved people, physically and spiritually.  She saved people, though she was not around.  It was a huge tragedy the way that she died, but God' love conquered all.  It does conquer all and it will when Judgment Day comes.  That is one amazing feeling and a reason why I know I can live for Christ without regret and with loads of risk, because one day my life will not matter except with what Christ has done in my life FOR those around me.
