It's sort of like so many of my friends post memes on FB that everything that happens to you is part of his plan and will. When I ask how a child being brutally raped is part of a plan, then it's just God is a mystery. My biggest issue is watching so many claim prayers answered or lil miracles, such as a raise, mortgage refinanced, new job, healing {under a doctors care of course} and a big PTL. It makes God seem so trife when you know millions of children suffer and die each year with mothers praying their hearts out and God turns a blind eye, yet can find time to give someone a raise. I wonder how someone feels that just lost a child to cancer seeing someone else claiming God found them a new car. Americans make God so generic and self serving.

Great post
