Good morning guys, my entry for this week's EcoTrain Question of the Week (QOTW)
I am just waking up this morning and decided to write my own entry. I am glad to have been participating in this. If there is a God why is there is no much suffering in the World. I must say that we all don't know why God allow anyone to suffer because he is still the creator and father of all. I must say that he knows whatever we are passing through. People always ask several questions that why did God allow so many things to happen to me. Why did he allow accidents, diseases and so on but yet no matter what happens to us, he is still God and he owns us. I so much believe we are always disturbed because we don't know what he has in stock for us. Some ask questions like why do my parents get divorced when they pray hard and yet bad things happen to them. In some situations, Father kill his children and children kill their parents for money.
All these happen and God is there. We all wondered. But let me say that we can't blame God for all these because they are all caused by man and he has given opportunity to do what we want whether good or bad.
We have Pastors returning from pastors conference have accident and they all die in the bus. Yet there is still God.
I want to add that as human being we can just give one reason or two why God allow all these to happen to us. In this life where we live, alot is happening, good, bad and ugly. So many disappointment and tragedy but I believe God has the power to reveal so many things to us when we ask and he could give us ways to prevent or safe us from all these bad situations. We should know that everything that happens do for a purpose and we must align with Gods purpose. I must say that life itself is not balance, we have the rich and the poor and sometimes the rich oppress the poor and make them sad and some even kill themselves.
I want to say this, as human being we must always accept what God had for us and make sure we are happy with so that we won't just feel bad Everytime when all these suffering come. God won't allow anything to happen without his consent. I must say this, God is the ultimate and we can't understand his ways because it's not if human. So many people in the bible worhsip God and they are always preaching his words, yet they suffered, even Jesus Christ suffered and he is son of God. I must say that suffering doesn't last forever.
Some situations and suffering makes us move closer to God. Some people are full of pride and when they have one or more challenges, they are humble and they move close to God the more, the suffering have made them humble and close to their creator. As human being, we can learn patience as a result what has happened to us. Some situations just require patience and that's all. Some situations just want us to be alert and that's all. Maybe God want to teach us to be alert. Some situations want us to work on being obedient to God and follow his steps and not just do what we wish. Some situations want us to be more grateful for what he has done and show appreciation to him. Gods love is Ultimate and that is why he is the God.
Thank you.
