There's also important to know that God has purpose
Like this story:

a guy got stranded on a small island
time passed by and he did not have any hopes of get out of that place
he decided to live his life and everyday he will pick up palms coconuts etc to build a house....he did he had almost everything to survive, when one day he decided to go fishing and when he was coming back the house was on fire, he forgot!
he cried so hard, he really felt it, he was devastated, and he ask God ...WHY GOD? WHY ME....YOU TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME AND NOW THIS ...WHY?
He fell sleep ...he did wake up two hours after when he saw this huge boat in front of him people were waving so happy to see him alive
he asked them how you knew I was here, well they said ...we saw the smoke signs you did so we follow it.
This is just for us to know that God works on mysterious ways
and that is why suffering and pain, can lead us to Happiness.

This is an unbelievable thread.

Having barbers doesnt preclude being unkempt.

This is just twisted. Disease, starvation, hurricanes, tornadoes, droughts, floods, airplane, car and train accidents, a little child falling down a well... all of these are the result of actions of bad people?

Please tell me, what evil has a 5 year old child committed to deserve the suffering of leukemia?

Starvation is not god's fault?

Do you thank god before a meal for the food on your table? If so, why??

He did not put it there. If you say "Thank the lord for this food", you are stating that he had responsibility in putting it there.
Therefore, if he gives food to you, why does he withhold it from others?
If you think he does not withhold it from others, then you better not thank him for the food you have.

Another way to think of it is this way. You might say "Praise the lord that those 80 people survived that plane crash." But you don't blame the lord for those 20 people died in the plane crash... Believers are more than happy to praise their god during the good events, yet they never blame him for the bad...

To understand and have answers for what you are asking for....We must learn who is god, what he wants from us, why things happen, and why we go through, If you really looking for the true and wants to have answers, Pray the holy spirit for his wisdom and study the bible,,,,I can not explain to you in a small parragraph what is God, it will take years and years to learn the whole concept....the answers are in the bible from the beginning to the end, If you really wanted to know ...at least by curiosity....read it ...and find out...is not in our hands as humans give you that knowledge it is only you who has those doubts it is something betwee God and you ....and it is soul by soul, person by person who has to understand their own answers.
god Bless

You need to read my thread about the power of attraction.

You just made a statement:

"Everything in my life is bad."

How many times a day do you think that? How many times a day do you say that? How many times a day do you place attention on the things in your life that you don't want?

You will attract what you think about. Now repeat after me:

"My life is getting a little bit better every day."
"I feel good today."

Think and talk about things just a little more positively and say things that you actually believe.

Say: "I get better looking every day."
Say: "When I smile at people, I attract good things."

There is a god of this world called satan.
God cannot go against His Word and cross over into satan's domain,unless asked by someone...otherwise God would be breaking His Word.

But God thru His Holy Spirt, IS able to work, thru a person who calls on Him, and has the Holy Spirit living in Him, thru which God can work...
God is waiting on us to call on Him, and ask Him into our hearts, so thay God then is able to do what He promised to do, for us who put our trust in Him.

:heart: will have more details at later time...be blessed...:heart:

Jesus not only comes to save us ... He now also has access into our lives (with permission from us the believers), so now he is able to heal and bless us.
Anything less would be ILLEGAL ACCESS, on God's part.

more later...have to run.

ps....the little baby calf(borned deformed) that I bottled fed this last week, ,died last nite.sad

At 3:00 am this morning ,I checked on him, and I asked God to do a creative miracle, or take him out of his sufferng.

Well, God had mercy and took him out of his pain.
A few hours later, he had died.
Even the mamma cow had abandoned him,sad and I could not bear to se this lillte calf abandoned like that....so isolated and alone, crippled.
So I asked God to have mercy last nite..and God did.
God chose to take him out of his pain. I am glad the precious little beautiful calf suffers no more.sad
God heard my prayer and had mercy.sad sad sad

There is a god of this world called satan.

I thought there was only one god

God cannot go against His Word and cross over into satan's domain,unless asked by someone...otherwise God would be breaking His Word.

But god created satan and hell
So god created another god (which you are not allowed to worship or revere)
So he isnt everywhere then.

Anything less would be ILLEGAL ACCESS, on God's part.

But as god makes the laws how can he be illegal?

Your contradictions are numerous.
Your comments are confusing.
