Our world is plagued by problems. Each of the 7 billion plus humans on this planet is plagued by problems. I have seen very few instances where a person argues that things are fine the way they are. I see lots of instances where folks cry out for change. It's those folks who might be willing to read this.
We want change. We want problems fixed. We want suffering eased. Those of us who believe in God can call out to him and ask him to help us. And he does. But for reasons that are too great for me to understand, God has not immediately solved all problems and relieved all suffering. He could, but he hasn't.
God has a plan that is bigger than I can understand. I refuse to believe in a God that is no bigger than my understanding. I insist on believing in a God that is good, because I see the beauty and love in this world. The problems and pain arise from choices made by ourselves and perhaps by fallen angels.
I am willing to seek solutions. I am also intent on beginning with working on myself. I may influence others, but what good is that if I have not sought to improve myself. God has answered my prayers for improving me. He isn't done yet. Just as with the world's problems, I don't know why he is taking his time. But it is his time. It is his world. And I submit to his will.
