God Why Is It Like This? An Answer!

God Why Is It Like This? An Answer!

As my daughter was sick, I was momentarily filled with anger at the entire situation. The rage begins with thinking of everyone that contributed leading me within a minute to the Source or God or Creator of it all.

“Why God did you make it like this?” was the thought burning through my mind.

God Why Is It Like This? An Answer!

Fortunately, I have learned/remembered that if only I understand, anger will instantly disappear because anger is a reaction that comes out of fear and confusion indicating a lack of total understanding.

Therefore, I was expecting an answer and received the following after asking the question several times with all my being: “So you can help each other.”

This answer quickly melted the fire of rage into tears of understanding as everything made sense. Every suffering of this life is an opportunity to learn, grow, and help each other.

While my daughter’s brief sickness is minor compared to the worst of our world, the chance to help was also relatively small. Logically then, the greatest wrongs of our world provide massive openings for connection, compassion, love, and service.

Without all the disasters of our lives, what would we have to do here?

Such wise words! Thank you very much

I have never heard this, anger is a reaction of fear and confusion indicating lack of understanding. Thanks for sharing. But I am sure that there's other reason for anger, for example, lack of patience.

Anger is an emotion and its temporary. When we struggle and there is pain or sickness we can help the next person. Its part of the Purpose many of us are searching for. Thank you for sharing.

This is touching experience. I wish the daughter a quick recovery. Once in a while, we do experience challenges once in a while. But we didn't pray it to get worse. Have a nice time @jerrybanfield
Cheers!
