Question for the Christians posting.

I mean no disrespect as I was raised Catholic myself but I've started questioning a lot. I have a question that no one's ever been able to answer. If everything that happens is God's will, then why do innocent children die of cancer every day, why are they born with horrific birth defects, why would God want a child to suffer in this way? From a mom who's lived it first hand.

Yes, I have often wondered the same thing. My son has Cystic Fibrosis, for which there is no cure. It's genetic and his mother and I gave it to him. Barring accidents, people with CF die from it. It is horrible knowing that I made my son this way and horrible seeing him having to cope with it every day.

@GrandMajestic I got my bone disease from my Dad
it was advanced by a vaccine that turned it into an autoimmune disease ,,I have passed it on to my kids

But sickness and disease was not part of Gods plan
The further we get from Him ..the more satan tries to get us to blame God
But I learned satan was the one trying to stop ,even kill me
Like Job ,,God is the one who wont let him

Aint it funny how the kids who are the sickest are not the ones blaming God
most I have met are looking forward to meeting Him in person

I have spent a lot of time on a cancer ward ,,burn unit ,nursing homes ,vocational rehabilitation centers

Very few of those people blame God

But it has made the families stronger for many of them
and they do an awful lot of praying

God healed my kid who was crippled for over 4 yrs

people ask me all the time why did God heal my kid and not so many others
I can't answer that ,no more then I can explain how He enables me to walk ,,I just know He does
And my kid is 38 now ,,she was told at 12 she would never walk again ,,thats the year she was healed
I praise God for healing her ,,and I don't question why He has not healed me ,,I do know He enables me to walk
when doctors say I shouldn't be able to
