Even if we have a picture of God in our minds, an intellectual category for how we think and talk about God, getting that to saturate the inmost pain points of our souls is often challenging. I invite you to think about how, when you authentically sit with your hurts, your experienced narrative of God differs from the picture we have of Jesus weeping.(Luke 19:41-44)
