Don't blame God

I'm really sad every time I heard people saying and talking that the lost of their loved ones is God's will. I think it's not. God didnt want his creations be sad.

Interesting thought. If you believe that God is all powerfull and all knowing, he should be able to make creations that are incapable of sadness (even if he "couldn't" make a world without sadness, which of course, if he was all powerful and all knowing, he could do). If God doesn't want sadness, why does he allow little children who happened to be born in Afghanistan to lose their arms, legs and sometimes lives to land mines? What did they do? Is he testing them? Trying to get them to convert to what ever the "right" religion might be (even if they've no idea another religion exists). Nope, sorry. Your idea that God doesn't want sadness can't be supported in any meaningful way.

i understand your opinions and thoughts. but i guess its just so happen that there were cruel people who makes the world very helpless. but it's not God. have you heard that God commanded those people to set a war in an area just for the his creations to suffer?

yup... you have a point but if we lost a thing we lost it for a reason, that reson maybe hard to find , but we must believe taht God takes away something because He has somethig better to give... although He dont want his sons to be sad, but he put things accordingly to His perfect plan. sometimes He uses our sorrows to remind use that His our comforter, deliverer and our friend... we must trust God for everything happens to us or with our love ones...

yes, I agree with you... But sometimes, there something happen very sad with us. Disaster like hurrican that we lost everything that we had. Someone we loved die, etc. Sometimes, our situation that to hard to handle, we cannot do anything. In that situation we feel God very cruel to us. I had this situation at my past. But, thank's God I can handle it and didn't blame Him anymore.
