Why Me, Lord

At some point in their walk, most Christians will ask God, “Why me, Lord?” Some get an answer right away, some later, and some not at all. But until that answer comes, the question reveals much about the person asking it. It’s a sign of the person’s condition and of what they believe about God’s nature. In this devotional I want to explore four different versions of the question “Why me, Lord?” and what each one reveals. Three of them focus on their own pain. The fourth points toward a better question.
