I have experienced cursing the Lord when I was still nine years old when very much and dearly loved toy car was lost. I was asking first the Lord to help me find it and when I get bored of all the searchings that I have done, I cursed and blamed the Lord for my toy car's lost which for me is my one and only toy and source of happiness. When I have given up my search and my faith that God will help me, it was then that my father found it. Afterwards, I asked forgiveness to the Lord for what I've just done. Now, I no longer blame the Lord for any griefs that I experience. Because for me, doing so is just a childish way of approaching things and I consider my self to be no longer that impatient kid. I know that God had forgiven me and forgotten my wrong childhood deeds and ways.

When my situation goes out of my hand certain pains and sickness which he has allowed in my Life, i will sad, I only tell him God why have you allowed such things in my life, My son got autism, which really shattered me as I had prayed for a normal child, but he heard my cry and I got a second child, daughter who is perfect so he has given me the grace to endure it.

There was a moment in my life that I also tested Him, a moment where I can say that I still do not know Him. Blame Him for every misfortunes in my life, every failures and misunderstandings. I realized that I am always seeking something for Him instead of of me, doing nothing for in return. It was a time where I was believing in some "Blinded-faith", to which I think was right and to His accordance. When I became a member of a Christian Youth Group (ANTIOCH), everything has started to change for me. I begun to understand how He loved us, His true intentions for me and His promise for all of us who believes in Him.

i agree with you..God always has a purpose...we are far from God but God always has a plan for us to know Him and always cares us eventhough we don't andjust ignore Him... God is love...He made my life so meaningful..He let me know Him and accept him as my Savior and God... he made my life change...

Blaming God when things go wrong in our life is wrong but when there's pain in our hearts, sometimes we forget the reality that all we have are not really from us. It's all made and given by God, therefore we have no right to curse Him. In my life, when something's gone wrong, I just ask Him why?? Why such misfortunes happen to me? But I am not blaming Him for what had happened. Sometimes I just conclude that maybe it's the payment for all my sins and I deserve to have those bad lucks. But still I believe that it's not God's way. God doesn't want us to suffer that's why He sent His beloved son to save us. So, it's not right to put our blame to God....always believe and keep holding on to Him....no matter what happens...He will be always at your side...

i had never blame the Lord but there are instances, we ask Him why things need to happen, but later we will realize everything He had made has a purpose no matter how small or big it is...God is powerful... Some people blame the Lord and some are thankful when they only receive blessings...but whatever the Lord had given us just accept whole heartedly... GOD is GOOd- Remember this..He always will..... God Blesses you

In all honesty, I have to say that there are times when I get upset with God. When I am going through a situation such as anxiety or something that I feel needs immediate help, I get upset because I know that he is my only hope and if he does not help me, I wont be helped. I don't stay mad for long, for the same reason that I get mad, he is my only hope.
