“...he is always just a little bigger than you need."
God doesn’t know what it feels like to be lonely and alone?
God doesn’t know what it is like to be tempted?
God won’t understand my grief or pain and so I keep it all bottled up inside.
God couldn’t possibly understand when I have been falsely accused of something
