Our God does satisfy. I think sometimes he has to draw us into strange experiences in order that we shall prove Him to the uttermost, for some purpose out of sight.
For what is He preparing us? It is all hidden, we have only hints in the Gospels and Revelation. "His servants shall serve Him" -- where? how? But this we do know; never a pang of disappointment or loneliness or pain (there are many different kinds of pangs) but may be turned to minister towards a perfecting power to serve -- first here on earth, then Otherwhere.
