As I talked about in the last blog,  what do you do when people ask difficult questions about God, and you don’t know the answer?  The best thing you can do is share your personal experience. People may say they don’t believe in God or believe the Bible is the word of God but what can they say to your personal experience. When you share what God has done in your life, it gives the opportunity for the Holy Spirit to touch their heart.  Even if they show no visible need and seem to handle everything okay, be assured that there is something missing in their life.  God has designed us to fellowship with him.

As far as the bad stuff that happens in this world, yes, there is a sin nature in man.  There is also a devil who wants to do harm to you.  Whether someone believes that or not does not change the truth.  God is not intimidated by peoples’ lack of faith in him and is not wringing his hands in heaven wondering what he is going to do next.  The fact that we don’t understand God’s reason for allowing certain things to happen in this world only shows that He is God.  What kind of a God would he be if we could understand everything about Him.  Our God is big and powerful and beyond our understanding with our finite minds.  That may not satisfy everyone’s questions but it is a start.  God bless.  Pastor Bob
