Why God Why?

Day 29

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”

John 14:27

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.

Ann reflects on a difficult time in her life and how prayer helped her to “run towards” God to feel the beauty of his love.
