Silent Truth~
There is a beautiful choral piece that I have sung in several concerts (Music- Kim Andre Arnessen) that express the feelings of people that have suffered great sadness due to great loss. The lyrics are from a World War I prayer (Anonymous 20th C), that goes like this:
I believe in the sun, even when it is not shining.
I believe in love when I feel it not.
I believe in God even when He (God) is silent.
The world is going through a time of turmoil right now, just as it has for centuries. The upheaval can be overwhelming at ttimes, especially when we experience the direct loss of a loved one because of that upheval. This becomes personal when death touches someone close to you. Unrequited Love is when a person is unable to return to you the love you have given to them over a period of time. They are now gone, and the love which you have given them over the years has (now) no where to go, no one to recieve it, no path for it to return to the sender. We grieve because of the painful reminder that the passing of a wife or husband, son or daughter, friend or even a beloved pet, takes away the relationship that once was so important, and becomes even more important because that loved one is gone.
This brings the Big Picture of history, present and future events, and even prophecy into focus, because we all want our loved ones to be with us in the Earth Made New. What do we do, and what to we say to those that we love that have no identity in Truth beyond their immediate future, that live life only in the present?
Uncertainty creates fear, and "perfect love casts out fear." (1John 4:18). Perfect love is the Truth. TRUTH is the opposite of uncertainty. The more we know Truth the more certain we become about outcomes, and fear of the future goes away.
So do not fear telling those you love the Truth.
