Oh....I get it now (about time)

I'm ashamed and a bit embarrassed to even admit this after being a Christian 20 years (2 years being a Christ follower).....that there have been many times I questioned if God is real.

I love watching Gods favor and the miracles, but am distraught by the violence. I can't help
