Why God Why?

Day 28

“How long Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?”

Psalm 13

There are days where it seems as though everything is going against us. Maybe you have been affected by a tragic accident, a death or a health scare. We blame God and ask how God allowed these things to happen. That’s when we need to remember that God takes everything and makes beautiful things out of it. Even though we as humans cannot always understand, God has a beautiful plan (Ex, Christ’s passion.) We also need to remember that God doesn’t control everything. God doesn’t give us crosses, but he is there to help us carry those crosses. What can we do? We can help others run to God by being a witness to God’s plan in how we live our daily life.

Father Ron reflects on how it can be hard to relate to God when things aren’t going so well.
