So why does it seem to work this way? Why does it take suffering for us to be drawn to God? I’ve said to myself (more than once), that “It’s not personal, until it’s personal.” Another way to say it, might be, “He’s not personal until He’s become ‘personal’ with us, to us.”
Perhaps we just don't need Him, until we see that we need something more than ourselves. ...perhaps suffering, more than anything else, gets us to see...our need.
