Dearest God,

Your own son said, "You will know the truth and the truth will set you free."  When we earnestly search for the truth, we mistakenly believe it will be a happy truth, a comforting, meaningful truth; however, rarely is this so.

I have spent months praying for an outcome, one that I hoped would bring hope, comfort, joy, solutions and peace to many people.  In my mind's eye I believed many would want this truth because it would rescue, cure or at least heal a few people.  I didn't count on the fact that the truth could be something else and it was.

Holy Father,
you are God;
there is none
like you.
Thank you
for the truth
even when
it is difficult
to learn.
Draw us
to your side,
the only
real place
to be.

Love, Andrea
