You keep blaming God for things in OUR power to fix!
Also, life in this world is an eye blink compared to eternity.
Look at Jesus... Why was He able to do things others were not able to do? Because of His Faith. He said: "It is not I, but my Father that works through me."
And through it all, He still had to DIE!
We are all connected. We are all in this together, whether we are: Rich, Poor, Starving, Fat, etc, etc.
The great equalizer is death. No one escapes it. Does it really matter when, where or how or who? No. what matters is that "it will" happen. Whether its a straving baby, or a mother with cancer, or the guy who got run over by a speeding bus today! "Why did God make that bus speed?!!" Why restrict yourself to "babies dying"?! We're all fucked! Right? Or are babies for added emphasis?
So your death can be a doorway, or a hole in the ground. Jesus showed us the way out of our misery, and demise. But we get too caught up in our selfishness and anger.
He owes us NOTHING! Get that through your thick heads. NOTHING!
We owe Him our lives. And one day we will have to account for that gift! I want others to account for the gift of life I received. Beacuse it isn't about ME! Its about US!
You want to ask Him why babies die? He will tell you He put YOU here to help them! That you watched and didn't lift a finger! And that all you did was complained rather than do something... anything to help them! But ultimately they are safe with Him now... or will be.
We have it in our collective world power to wipe out hunger, diesease and sorrow in this world. But we as a human race would rather: fight, accumulate wealth, and blame others and God for our own ignorance!
