"There are so many things in this world that confuse me. I don’t understand certain fashion trends. I don’t understand my 4-year-old son’s reasonings for why he is right and I am wrong. And I don’t always understand why God allows bad things to happen. Some things just don’t make sense. In these moments, we need to remember that we are not the God of the universe. It seems silly to say, but it’s true. We need to remember the part that we play in God’s story."
