where's the safe landing

there are obviously many, many things that i don't understand about the grace and comfort of God. number one being - where is it when i need it the most? for me it's like slamming your car into a tree at 90 mph only to find out that the air bags don't work. don't get me wrong - my faith doesn't waiver. it just seems to be only a one-way faith right now. all the christian-ese and stuff we talk about (when our lives are relatively painless) seem to be just a bunch of words right now. i feel convicted of offering cheap meaningless comfort and hope to those over the years that really needed it.

something is majorly wrong with this situation and i don't remember signing up to learn this lesson.
