“Missy could fall down
and hurt herself even if I am walking right there beside her, but that doesn’t
mean that I allowed it to happen. She knows that with a father’s unconditional
love that I will pick her up and carry her. I will try to heal her and I’ll cry
when she cries. I will rejoice when she is well … and in all the moments in my
life, God’s been right there beside me. The truth of God’s love is not that He
allows bad things to happen, it’s His promise that He will be there with us
when they do.”
