Yes, just go and blame it on God (that's rather pathetic!)
1st November 2009
Ha, you could call this my angry script. But my anger seems justified in some way.
I was in the dining hall the other day talking with some colleagues and in our conversation this thought simply dawned on me.
There is that question: “If there is a good God, why is there such pain in the world?”
I think that is one of the biggest ones against people becoming Christians.
The world has people who are poor, who are hungry and people who are hurt.
And non believers have the nerve to blame God for it all.
BUT in fact the blame falls on all people- both Christians and non believers alike.
Because of our selfishness, because we think that the world revolves around us; that results in the world being in pain, crime and loss. Because we are just so damn self centred!
So don’t be pathetic and blame it on God or His people...
If you are a human with a heart...it is then your role to care for the world too. Don’t just put it in the hands of God and point fingers at Him.
It’s that simple. All of humanity can pull their own weight and care for the world around them.
I can’t believe I only thought of this now. No one in fact has the grounds to direct that question to God anymore. God is caring. And He’s entrusted humankind to care for the world around them.
Are we failing our responsibility? So take off the labels you give: atheist, non believer, Christian, other religion follower...
If you are human it is your duty to care for the world around you.
