I'm Always Trying to Understand Why

Why we suffer
A question I have asked myself over and over again, God let's just suffer for a number of reasons, first it's sin that makes us feel the suffering, when God made Adam and eve they were without sin and hhaving free will chose to rebel against God and that is why we suffer from sin. God uses pain and suffering to draw us closer to him, it is during times of dispair and sorrow that we reach out to him, he's there to comfort us showing his faithfulness and ensures that we will stay close to him. A benefit is that as we experience God's comfort through trails, we are then able to comfort others in the same way, he proves to us that our faith is real though the suffering and pain that are inevitable in this life, how we respond to suffering is determined by the genuineness of our faith.. God uses suffering to take are eyes off this world and put them on the next, could God prevent all suffering, of course but he assuses us that all things work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose. We suffer sometimes because God needs to get are attention, at times he's like a parent who has to discipline us. His plan is perfect, his character is flawless and those who trust him will not be disappointed. I read more about why we suffer and will probably continue to add on to this post, I'm sure not everyone will agree but that's to be expected

Rick
