Then I saw your post and I'm so sorry. Sorry for this family that's now shattered and so sorry for those who loved them.<br /> <br />I know that sometimes there are things that happen that we just don't understand and I can see why some would question God but as His servants we have to be careful to remember that the pain and suffering in this world isn't God's fault or doing but it's the price that sin has taken on our world. We live in a deprived world. God gave us the free will to choose and sadly this is the state we have gotten ourselves into. Remember that God does not cause the bad things to happen they happen because of the free will He has given man, when they do happen be sure that He grieves along with us and more so for they were his creation and many times children. <br />I know how much you are hurting but try to remember that God is good all the time and all the time God is good!!! If this isn't true (it is) but if that truth isn't true than what is and what kind of god do we serve. <br />I'm praying for this family and those that were affected by this tragedy. I know there will be many questions and the answers we give as God's representatives will make all the difference in the hearts of the lost. <br />Praying for you!!!Tori Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859488167015452608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8459483443155535830.post-39930190467731090552011-06-19T14:48:22.181-07:002011-06-19T14:48:22.181-07:00I'm just sick reading this. This makes me so s...I'm just sick reading this. This makes me so sad. I just had a pastor's wife friend who lost a baby due to SIDS. He was adopted, because she's only been able to bear one child in about 18 years. He died five days after the paperwork made him legally theirs. I could NOT understand that, and still can't. I've been doing my own questioning, too. I understand your questioning this. An evangelist reminded me years ago that Jesus questioned God while He suffered on the cross, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" And Jesus WAS God. So I believe that tearful questions from sinful, finite humans are not wrong. The Lord remembers we are dust. I am going to pray for you as you deal with this, and for the families. Satan wants to distract and discourage us, Traci, I think because we're full time ministry and folks are watching us. Let's lift each other up and let God fight the Devil for us on this one? What do you think? I could sure use the prayers. <br />Thanks for sharing your heart. And sorry for writing a book.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00658949252645644391noreply@blogger.com
