The question is asked every day. Someone loses faith, because their circumstances are overwhelming and the pain cuts deep. Why would a God so wonderful allow such things to happen? Doesn't He know what is going on in this world? Of course God knows.
The thing everyone forgets is this: He did something to provide for His people, the ones who are 'good' in the world's eyes. The ones who love Him. He sent His One and Only beloved Son to earth, to die a pain-filled death, so we sin-filled humans may be redeemed. Do you think God did not grieve as He listened to His own Son's voice cried towards the Heavens? Begging Him that His cup would be taken from Him? Jesus died that death to offer us a life in a perfect world, with no tears, no death, no broken hearts, no darkness. He gave us hope for the life to come, though we are living in a uncomplete, frustrating world. He told us to hold on, to run the race with endurance until He came for us and carried us into a life of perfection. Jesus was aware that bad things happen. While He lived in this world He brought miracles to the houses of the dying, healed the blind so they could see the beauty of the earth, He gave peace to the weary, He replaced the emptiness in the destitutes heart with overwhelming love. Jesus gave Himself to heal a dark and broken world, even while many scoffed at Him. This isn't a God forsaken world, this is a world that has forsaken the beauty of Christ's love for us. A world that rejects it's King and insults it's Creator. While we continue to believe that change is possible without His grace and love. Bad things do happen to good people, but we must realize that not one person is completely good. We all have sinned and don't deserve to be lifted from the darkness. But with His forgiveness and beauty, He will bring us into a new life. A life where we will lift our voices and sing filled with the joy we had never experienced before. A life where we will run and never grow weary. A life of perfection. A life we long for here on earth, as we believe in presidents to bring the change our aching souls are wanting. No man can ever fullfill what the Son of God did. The Son of God is the change. The Son of God is the only One that can bring a change. Persevere through the brokenness, one day because of His grace, everything will be changed-forever. Jesus, I love you.Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of
your Father.Matthew 10:29
