Abandon

People say that their world is a mess.  Why doesn’t God do something.  Then they become agnostics.  They miss the challenge to the believer.  The challenge is to abandonment to God.  When an alcoholic cannot stop drinking, they fox-hole a prayer to God to help them.  Nothing happens, so they become agnostics.  God did not come through.  It happens when someone loved gets sick and does not get well, or even dies.  More agnostic survivors.  These are all a call to surrender and abandon oneself to God or Higher Power.  Just ask a recovering alcoholic if they have surrendered.  They are witnesses to surrender and abandonment.  Agnostics move beyond resentment that things did not go their way.  Not much to resent if you are not even sure anything is out there.  In fact, the power may not be out there.  It might be in there.
