Life of Job

[81388*]

Theoden,
Thank you, it is nice to hear of others who are struggling with the same questions.

For the last 10 years or so I have been growing closer to God, really my lifetime, but most obviously over the last 10 years.

We have been very involved in church for the last 6 years, we have taught confirmation class every sunday, my wife has sung in the praise band, and the bomb was dropped just after I returned from a 2 week mission trip to Mongolia.

I just get mad because in my trying to put God first, I have opened the door to the most hurtful tempting of my faith, and I can't understand why God would allow that.

The trip was planned 6 months in advance, and up til the night I left, my wife was supportive of it. It was during our time apart that the relationship, which has probably been a EA for awhile, gathered steam and the wheels started to come off the wagon.

I just don't get it.
