Everything happens for a reason right?
God doesn't let bad things we cant handle happen right?
up till today i belived that....
but now i wonder.....
why do these bad things happen//// i mean sometimes possibly a little good can come outta them like 9/11- it brought ppl closer to God and upped the security for planes ( and downed the costss at the time- course no one wanted them then)...
but sometimes nothing good comes... why does it happen?
why, especially when u pray for some1 and something bad happens to them....??
I hope u got what i mean , i know i wasn't very claer, but i tried...
I guess u dont realize how bad something is until u experience it personally...?
neways, i was just wondering about this...

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD . As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." Isaiah 55:8-9
Deuteronomy 29:29 "The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law."
as an example, maybe if u look at the heresies, people at the time of Athanasius and Cyrillos etc mite not have felt any use for all the troubles the church went through at the time, but thnx to all of that, today we have precious writings from the fathers in which they refute the false teachings...
God Bless,

" To everything there is a reason,
A time for every purpose under heaven:
A time to be born and a time to die
A time to plant, and a time to pluck what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down and a time to build up;
A time to weep and a time to laugh
A time to mourn and a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing
A time to gain and a time to lose
A time to keep and a time to throw away
A time to tear and a time to sew
A time to keep silence and a time to speak
A time to love and a time to hate
A time of war and a time of peace."
GOD BLESS ALL! :-*
he sounds weird im sorry, hes like "aight"
weird kinda im sorry
well i don't have any religious quotes to support wot i have to say, but i know that things have happened to me that i never thought for a million years i could ever undersrand why god allowed them to happen. but a few years later i can see some reason behind it.
i have a question to add though, do you think that we will one day, like before we die or something, be told the reasons why things have happened? or does it not matter?
