Today I wonder whether you can, in fact, make it all better, God. Because if you can … but you don’t (some divine moral issue with intervention??) … then perhaps we should really just say that you can’t. Because you won’t.
Or is it the “you through us” solution, which I like from a perspective of incarnational theology and human agency, but it has its limits, too, because … well … we don’t either (make it all better, that is). Or we won’t.
Perhaps “make it all better” isn’t the point, which I could also believe, but it’s still a stinker of an answer in response to — you know — world peace and such.
A little help here, God?
