With all these horrible natural disasters, and people suffering in the world, I find it so depressing how some people actually have the audacity to claim that it was God’s way of punishing them or that He’s the reason for their suffering. How can that be, when the Bible says “God is love.” (1 John 4:8). It would be hypocritical of Him then, if He used things like natural disasters as venues to make human beings get hurt. Yet so many people blame Him for what goes wrong in their lives. Well, just because God allows things to happen, doesn’t mean He’s the cause of it. To help put things in perspective: A human father who loves his child does everything in his power to help lead that child in the right direction. But when that child happens to fall down and get hurt, or another person comes along and just randomly attacks the kid, is it the father’s fault? Of course not. Similarly, sometimes things happen around the world… just because they happen. There doesn’t have to be a straightforward reason behind it.
