Watching the news, witness to both scenes of utter destruction and the unrelenting faith of a vanquished nation, good people now proclaim, “We were lied to.”
Yes, you were.
“What is this faith of a young man who has just lost his entire beloved family — his parents, his wife, his children, his siblings — and yet he still glorifies his Lord?”
This is the question on the lips of good people everywhere, witnessing medics who have lost their own loved ones still battling on to save the lives of the waves upon waves of injured brought into their care.
Good people are not blind to their suffering, and are in awe of their humble reliance on the One, submitting to God’s will, as they utter, “From Him we come and to Him we return.”
Yes, you were lied to. These men, women and children are not savages. They are an honorable people.
Be honorable people too.
