Formulas

by Kim Aasland (January 2019)

The world loves formulas.
They make us feel safe.
They make us feel in control.
They make us feel powerful.
The problem with formulas is that they don’t account for the soul.
They don’t account for God who cannot be tamed.
Who can restrain the wind?
Does it take more faith to pray and receive healing
Or to pray and not receive healing and still believe?
The Lord gives and the Lord takes away;
Blessed be the name of the Lord.
