Interrogating The Interrogator

Thursday, November 7, 2024

Richard Wurmbrand was imprisoned for his faith by the communist government of Romania. He was interrogated and tortured day in and day out. One day he said to his interrogator, "You interrogate me all the time. Now I want to interrogate you. Have you ever been in love?" "What kind of question is that?" said the interrogator. Wurmbrand answered, "I once fell in love with the most beautiful woman I'd ever seen. Not long after we met, I asked her to marry me and she said yes. She loved me! When anybody asked how I was, I answered, 'She loves me.' So here you are, asking me so many questions, and the one thing I can tell you is, 'Jesus loves me.' So when you come to know the love of God, you won't have to ask so many questions. His love will answer the questions in your heart." So, you too might have a lot of questions in your life, but remember the words of the prisoner. In the end, it's God's love that's going to matter. Whatever you're going through, let go and say, "But God loves me."
