Ever since I was first diagnosed with ECD I
have struggled with how to respond when people tell me that God is in
control and it will all work out, because i know they think this means I
will get better. I know God is in control, but I don't take that to
mean that I will ever be cured of this disease (or that there will even
be a tomorrow to wake up to).
I am okay with this uncertainty, yet i understand for many the notion that God would allow disease, suffering, and death to happen (particularly to those that serve him) is a hard thing to understand. Personally this uncertainty has always given me comfort because it proves to me that God is much mightier and more complex then I can ever, then I should ever hope to understand. For others though this uncertainty causes confusion and pain.
Today I read a wonderful blog by a Pastor I know that shares some thoughts on the question, "If God is good and all powerful...how come there is so much evil in the world?". I suggest you check it out at the link below.
