I don't want to dwell on this..but I feel like I need to write right now..I try to never question why things happen..I kind of figure theres always a reason..although over time there has been more than one occassion where I questioned? Just like most of us..and theres not an answer really acceptable to me..I have one friend that always tells me its God's Plan...I always try not to argue back with her..I want to say to her but what if it were your child would you feel the same.?.would you just go on like nothing happened in your merry life and just say to yourself..it was Gods plan...?/but I never said that to her...she always writes scripture to me to try to make me understand..I still don't though..I believe like anyone else..God has been with me all my life..thru hills and valleys ..ups and downs..from the depths of hell...God wasn't there this day...he was somewhere else ..taking care of something else..guess he wasn't in China either when 22 children were being slashed at a school...Satan was definetely in Newtown Conneticut and China that day...he sure gets around.....I know that God is everywhere ..but I think his attention was somewhere else at the time..I suppose there will be other times like this in my time...I pray for nothing like this to ever happen again..for all the babies to be safe..learn their ABC's and 123"s..put their little teeth under the pillow for the tooth fairy..to be here to look for the easter egss ..to celbrate birthdays until their old and hunched over..to open their gifts on Christmas morning.. to grow up to be firefighters, doctors, lawyers, chefs, indian chiefs, Presidents..I think God might need an assistant..things are getting way out of control...I think he needs help...I haven't lost my faith in God ..I just lost my faith in Man...years ago..
God Bless the little children
all the little children of the world
red, yellow. black and white,
they are precious in his sight..
God Bless the little children of the world..
We can thank President Ronald Reagan and the US Congress during the 1980's for defunding all the mental hospitals and services for families to get their loved one help so that the community at large wouldn't have to suffer such losses. Shame on Ronald and his cronies of little heart and NO I.Q.
ReplyDeleteI too struggle with that one. Each life has a meaning and we just have to keep the faith God know his intentions.
ReplyDeleteFaith is all we have when tragedy like this happens.
