This is the personal testimony of Scott Abbott, a person with Muscular Dystrophy. Scott has countless personal experiences that illustrate the principles that Greg Boyd has spoken on about in the previous two sermons I posted here on my blog. Scott has personally wrestled with questions about why some prayers are answered and others are not – most fundamentally related to why he himself hasn’t been healed. I hope this touches you as much as it did me. Sometimes we don't always get to see what's occurring "behind the scenes" spiritually, but rather we need and should trust in our Heavenly Father and understand that in the end he truly loves us. As you will see from Scott's testimony, as Christians we must always be prepared to explain why bad things happen in this fallen world. But most importantly we must do so in a manner that does not impugn the character of God, nor one that will possibly bring added pain or confusion to that person's situation.
