Yes, that felt strange even as I typed the words.
God is God and is able to do anything and everything. But, is He really?
He forms life, created the world, provided salvation for all who believe. Jesus lived a sinless life on earth. The Holy Spirit lives inside His children.
God makes it rain on the just and unjust. He makes the sun bright and the earth far enough away not to ignite.
Yes, He is “able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine,” according to Ephesians 3: 20.
However, God is unable to go against His nature or His character.
God is good. All the time. And all the time, God is good.
Not that God is limited by time, of course. But, if He is always good, He cannot NOT be good. (Yes, that hurts my brain too.)
Psalm 92:15 states there is no wickedness in Him.
I don’t know the answer to all of your questions. If God is good, then why are we remembering the horrific acts of 9.11.2001? If God is good, why were there horrific acts of violence this week against people NOT being horrific?
God has emotions and He is with us when we are hurting, confused, sad and angry. Please take your questions, concerns, and anger to Him. He is a big God.
As David wrote, “But now, Lord, what do I look for? My hope is in you.” (Psalm 39:7)
Again, I don’t understand, Lord. But I trust in You. That phrase is on repeat in my head.
God is good. All the time. And all the time, God is good.
