It was quite by accident, but as the story of Cheyenne's life developed, anger with God became an issue. My character had to get over her preconceived ideas about God, life and fairness.

In your own life, there may be times when you cannot understand God's action or inaction. Of course, He can prevent, block and micromanage every life, but wouldn't that defeat the purpose of human existence? God doesn't want to control us like puppets. He wants us free to live and choose what we will do, believe, and love. Thus, this world brings pain to each of us and it has nothing to do with God's fairness or love for us. But because that knowledge sometimes comes late or never at all, many people today walk around angry with God.
If you've endured hard times, remember that God still loves you. Your hard times does not change one thing about His nature or the plan He has for your life. Time to make peace with God and with yourself. Life is what it is, but the blessing of faith is that in all our changes, we're loved, adored and seen after by God.
