Asking Why

As I got on the Internet today, the first news I saw was of the earthquake numbers from Haiti. Over 100,000 dead with the local government saying the number could easily reach 500,000. The quake struck at 4:53 p.m., and was centered 10 miles (15 kilometers) west of Port-au-Prince at a depth of only 5 miles (8 kilometers), the U.S. Geological Survey said. USGS geophysicist Kristin Marano called it the strongest earthquake since 1770 in what is now Haiti. full article (http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9D718703&show_article=1)

Having just been in the Caribbean last month, and from what I saw then, God has a very strong part in their lives. May we all please find time to meet these people in prayer. Contact the International Red Cross (http://www.icrc.org/) and, or your churches to find out what you can do to help in this moment of need.

These are the moments that test our faith. This is when we find it easy to ask God, Why?

So if you want to know why, ask God. Be honest with Him about how you are feeling. Then ask Him to show you His answer. Again remember Rom 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

He was told us that we will experience many things in our life that we will totally fail to understand. That is why we have the Gospel. The Good News. Because God knows that this world is godless. So He sent us the Holy Spirit to guide us as we pass through this live to eternity with Him. To help us understand the path that God has prepared for each of us.

We read in God’s word, “Heb 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” No matter what, He is with us.

So if you want to know why, ask God. But honest with Him, and yourself.

A lot of people got to go be with the Lord and the rest of us get to continue to be blessed daily by our Father in Heaven.
