Howdy Mrs. PotatoHead,

You wonder:" Any how if this is true then why are so many people who do believe suffering? Why does god if it exists think it is necessary for some to suffer great deals. I don't expect you to answer, it just makes me wonder."

God exists because He is Alpha and Omega..this mortal coil is for us to learn the lessons of Life,not to sit around in Paradise,that comes after we depart this mortal coil,and return home..to our Creator.

God isn't causing bad things to happen and making folks suffer,He gave us the incredible blessing of Free Will,it is our choice's,that cause folks to suffer and for bad things to happen. When God steps into this physical plane,you will know it-whether it's to bless or to wreak judgement,or to perform miracles.

God knows and expects that Christians and the meek,will suffer persecution..and He does not give us more than we can bear,ye that labor-and are heavy laden..Jesus Christ has said that He will bear your burden..if ye but come unto Him.

May God Bless y'all..and Happy Thanksgiving !! Praise God and be thankful unto Him..for your many blessings ! In the Name of Jesus Christ,Amen !

Have a good one...Torog
