"Why?"

I've found that when all that can be done has been done,
and when all that can be said has been said,
and all that can be explained has been explained,
...
but the pain is still there,
...
I have nothing else left to do except to ask,
"Why?"

And I am not expecting an answer.
I just need to ask why.

Read John Fischer today and am loving the way he put it in his book Love Him in the Morning.
"Sometimes I forget that Jesus cried out, "Why?" from the cross. Ever think about that? It must be ok to do this. The "Why?" question does not have to indicate lack of faith. It indicates lack of human comprehension. Sometimes even all the right answers (which Jesus obviously knew) don't touch the pain, and "Why?" is the only thing you can say. To me, Christ's "Why?" from the crpss translates to something like, "I knew this was coming, and I know what it's for, but I had no idea it was going to be like this!" It's an entirely human cry that does not cancel out faith."
