I'll post mine here, then, for Paisley...
It's all about faith... Faith to believe in things even though you don't "see" them... Faith that you'll one day understand the things that you don't understand right now... Faith that there's more to life than a series of random, unpurposeful moments... | |

There is a very important reason why God permits wickedness at this time, I believe.
The God described in the Bible is a God of love, yet he has other qualities that are demonstrated in the outworking of his purpose. According to the Bible, there is a universal issue being settled even as we post on these threads. Back to your question..."if there is a God..." If there is a God (as the one described in the Bible), then there is also a Devil. It is very important not to attribute the Devil's works to God. God will act and at that time wickedness will end. "And God will wipe every tear from their eyes and death will be no more... neither will pain nor sickness nor outcry be any more...Rev 21:3,4." One may ask, "How does that help the ones who have already been affected?" The answer is given by Jesus who says that all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out. Yes, God will "undo" the works of the Devil. This is all based on the Bible. For those who reject the Bible...ignore the above. Melody So...how's everybody doing? | |

Here Paisley I posted this b4 ...
I just got finish reading ur thread, before I even opened it I knew right away what the question was going to be. I always ask why do some believe that life is going 2 always be perfect? Don't you know if u never go through anything in life, you'll never learn anything or you'll never grow. Life is not perfect. As long as there is a battle between good and evil, shit happens. It's called the process of life. You gotta go through some things in order 2 appreciate the good in life, even if you are a good person. It explains this in the bible, you must endure suffering because it builds charector or something like that. Alot times I just wish people would read the bible. becuase alot of ur answer will be found in there and you will also ask alot of question 2.

God is special for all of us...in our own ways...for noone else to judge or try to figure out...:F:
for me...there is no question that there is a God...i have had many many times in life that i swear he is sitting right here with me ...so...yes...i am not perfect...but without a doubt...there is a God...and i am sooo much happier to know him and have him in my life... as far as grandpa goes paisley...its very hard to understand these things...and i certainly have no answers for you on that...but i can tell you that the place where he is now...is comforting and he is very well taken care of... those are my thoughts on the situation...
