"If there is a God why is there so much suffering in the world?"

This is my entry for this week's EcoTrain Question of the Week (QOTW)

Good evening guys, here is my entry for this week question. "If there is a God why is there so much suffering bin the world?" I Will definitely try my best to do justice to this topic. There is God even in our suffering. So many people do not understand that God lives and he will continue to live no matter what we face. I want to say that Evil started here on earth and Satan is known to be the cause because he was an angel and he didn't stand well in truth. So many people believe why should dey they suffer when they pray and worship God. So many people suffer and even in the bible, there were alot of people who suffer and make sacrifices. Sometimes this might be to test the faith of the person. I want you to know that God has created us well and he had given us the opportunity to choose between the good and bad and it's ours to choose what we want. Some people drink and they drive, when they have accident, who exactly do we blame. Even if you are a Christian and worhsip God, you should do what is right at the right time.

Some people believe that everything that happens come from God. The bad, ugly and the good. There are people who believe that all bad things that happen because God hates such person and it was just a way to punish such a person. God loves everyone equally but his ways is not out ours and we can't just Understand how he does his work. I have seen so many religious men of God who have loose their children and some even die in accident. It's just God and we can't say just because all these things happens. There is no Good.

No matter we face, we all have gotten reason to say at one time or the other to say why is God allowing all these bad things to happen to us. But he has power over all of us and his timing is not ours. Sometimes he want us to be close to him and sometimes want us to appreciate him more and praise him. Some people know God more when they are sick and they think they will die, they move closely to God and do their prayers well. It's good to appreciate God no matter what. He had plans for all of us and his name should be blessed.

There are some churches who believe as christians we must not suffer, so those who are suffering are they not for God. Even Jesus Christ who is a son of God suffered and was even nailed on the cross. As a follower
of Christ, I believe the cross is part of what we must carry always. It's quite difficult to be a true christian but we must strive to be and this doesn't mean we won't face is challenges but we will definitely over come it.Life is not mathematics and some people believe they must get whatever they want by all means but God doesn't work that way. He will do what he will do and as he pleases. We can't force God to do anything. He will do exactly as he pleases. I lost one of my uncle sometimes ago and I almost questioned God that how did he allow this to happen. He is one of the breadwinner in the family. Who am I to question him for what he has done. When we are happy or sad we must never forget God. God has plans for us all us.
