A difficult time- -or my crisis of faith?
By Matt C. Abbott
This won't be a lengthy column. In fact, it'll be one of the shortest to date.
I have to say that it must be the prayers of others that keep me going. I'm either going through a difficult time (nothing new to me) — spiritually and emotionally — or I'm having a crisis of faith. A dark night of the soul, perhaps.
Perhaps.
And I often feel as though I'm spitting in the wind.
I'm drained and depressed, not to mention angry. Cynical as well.
For those who are interested: Yes, I've been closely following the Father Tom Euteneuer saga. And, yes, I've reached a conclusion — a while ago, as a matter of fact. Some of you know it; others not.
It's just a sad situation all the way around. Pray for all those involved. Pray that the truth be known. For those who really don't care, well ... carry on.
And many, many, many thanks to those who continue to pray for me. God bless you!
