The more I see the horrendous evil humans are capable of, the more I stand in awe before the miraculous transformation that Christ creates in the human heart who acknowledges its desperate wickedness. Rather than succumbing to overwhelming evil, may we be captivated by divine awe!

Unexplainable Evil!
Evil is unexplainable because sin is unexplainable.
No words can comfort a mother who lost her son or daughter. No words can comfort a husband who lost his wife or a wife who lost her husband. No words can heal the eyes and hearts of children who survived. No words can undo the horrific memories that minds have recorded live.
Evil is beyond human capacity to grasp because it goes against our original design.
But the only One who has the answers did not remain silent, as many seem to think.
The Creator, who created humans in His image out of an overflow of love for eternal fellowship, and who was soon thereafter asked to leave because we wanted to rule our own kingdom… this Creator did not remain silent. He heard the cries of the very humankind who had rejected Him, foolishly thinking that they can determine what is good and evil for themselves. He heard their cries. He sent them messenger after messenger. He wept over them. Yet they would not listen. And He did not quit. He could have easily just clicked “undo” and destroyed it all. But He didn’t.
