Blame it on God!

I have had a few friends question, “If there be a God, how can he allow children to be abused. How can he allow violence in the world today? My answer is we have asked him to stand back so he has. He will not come for us until we are ready to believe in him.


Poem Artwork

They scoff and grumble, “If there be a God then why?


Why does he allow killing, wars and child abuse; things he should deny?


 


They decide that this God is an imaginary being.


Even though they see all his creation they look without seeing.


 


God has answered but they listened not because they wanted not to admit


It was not God who fought wars or mistreated others in an angry fit.


 


We are called human but we are not always humane.


So I ask who we think we are that we question his domain.


 


From that day in the Garden of Eden when they did eat of the fruit


Man has gained free will and God’s way he doth repute.


 


Blame it on God if that is your wish but you make a huge mistake.


Trust in him and there is a better life of which we can partake.

"They decide that this God is an imaginary being.

I’ve often wondered...
what do those who don't believe, think of ,
when they stare down at a newborn babe,
or see a sun rise...
or watch a tragedy without question...?
I've often wondered...
what do those who don't believe,
destine?

You stir me...
Excellent thoughts here...
Love and Peace~

Often times it is hard to understand why bad things happen in this life, but the bible tells us to lean not to our own understanding. We must trust that we are in the hands of a just God! Great write, thought provoking indeed!
Blessings,
