1. Why is God so kind to allow me a vacation when others never enjoy such a privilege? why am I not perpetually grateful?
2. Why can I not slow my head down and have “vacation” time every week?
3. How many people around me know not my Savior and are headed for hell?
4. How big is God’s world and why do I imagine my country, my culture, and myself to be the center?
5. How many more “good years” will I have with Laura? Suffering is sure to come.
6. God makes rich and God makes poor. As an American, I am rich in comparison yo my global neighbors. Therefore, why do I still covet what the ultra-rich and famous get to enjoy? Sin is still deep inside me.
7. How fortunate am I to go back to work that I love? How fantastic to get paid to do what I would do for free?
8. Why did I wait so long to enjoy the moment? I missed so many opportunities to seize the day.
9. Won’t Heaven be great when there is no war, strife, sin, or dissatisfaction?
10. How good is the Gospel to allow me to have fun without idolatry and with a clean conscience?
Unfathomable Grace
