"The Problem of God's Absence"	August 13th, 2006

Psalm 22:1-5

1. My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
          Why are you so far from saving me,
          so far from the words of my groaning?
2. O my God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,
          by night, and am not silent.
3. Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One;
          you are the praise of Israel.
4. In you our fathers put their trust;
          they trusted and you delivered them.
5. They cried to you and were saved;
          in you they trusted and were not disappointed.

"Make me a believer, a "character man", who, unreservedly obedient, sees it as necessary for his character's sake that he must not always understand. Make me willing to believe even when I cannot understand."

~Soren Kierkegaard
