the end

God has had his fun. Year after year holding the carrot of faith over my head. Promises and assurances of presence. Garnishing every drama with hope. always knowing that in the end it will be destruction that will be my prize. Dream after dream shattered till I am cornered with no where to go. Everything everyone screaming at me ‘you lose’ ‘you are wrong’ till now I am no more. No more faith, no more grace, no more hope … just anger and bitterness and a closed book … empty … God has had his fun and has moved on …

  1. Morning Dennis,

    Thanks for these. I don’t get to read All of them but three ones that I do always make me think.

    It seems that the emotion that you have expressed in this one is the theme of the books God has led me to read these last few months. Have you read Lysa T (can’t spell her name) book? She is shattered. Vulnerable. Real.

    I find it hard to express thoughts. I definitely don’t have your gift. You and your family are incredibly precious.

    Love Jacqui

  2. Dennis, you’ve been in our hearts and prayers since we saw you just before Christmas. We are so sorry that it has only gotten tougher, but as feeble as it sounds, we’re with you, holding on for you while you lack the strength just like you would for us. Sending our love to you and yours, always grateful for your friendship, generosity and authenticity.
