Have you every asked that question either privately in your thoughts or out loud screaming into the heavens?. "WHY GOD?" If you love me, why this? If you're a good God, why have you allowed this? If you're a righteous and just God, why have you allow this injustice to fall on me? Too often we live life under the circumstances, and we protest saying things like -- "Poor me." "Life is not fair." "Why does God allow bad things to happen to good people?" Our view of God is so shallow. God is sovereign. HE is still on HIS throne. God loves you!!! God loves me!!! No circumstance can change that fact. God's love for us has forever been declared at the Cross of Calvary. "But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8). That truth is not up for a debate or a vote. It is absolutely true. It is totally raw unconditional love.

I want to invite you to watch some short videos (links below) of an amazing young man with an awesome attitude. His circumstances are challenging, but his faith and love for God is awesome. PLEASE TAKE A FEW MINUTES TO WATCH THESE TWO VIDEOS, AND THEN IF YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS, I WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO POST YOUR THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS.

Do You Know How Much God Loves You?
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son."
[John 3:16-18 (NIV)]
