Is God Guilty?

Rabbi Levi Welton

If God is so Great, why can't He just create a world without any pain whatsoever? I don't want people to stop talking to God. I'm not even angry at God for something terrible like cancer. I just want people to think.

We've now gone through a few years of economic hardships, and we are making it through. Yes, times are hard for most of us; harder than we've ever known or experienced. It's true it is not over, but there is hope and we're going to be all right. Trust me. Trust God.

Those who want to have the automatic weapons, the excessive number of rounds in a clip, the AK-47s, the desire to get any kind of military hardware that might be available seem to be the most frightened people. They lack faith in anything but their own possession of a weapon.

While I haven't always found that window when the door closed in the past, some part of me has clung to that belief over the years. In my recent experience, I have discovered that it just isn't true: He doesn't merely open a window, He actually opens a universe.

Today while driving, I didn't listen to the voice coming out of my GPS because I thought I knew a better route to get to my desired destination. However, I was wrong ... very wrong.

I need to be reminded frequently that I am not "The God Whisperer." I do not bend God to my will. I am not the Alpha. I do not train God to follow my lead. And if I ever think I'm the Alpha, I've got it backward.

Dec. 16, 2007, God called my beloved home. Anger and grief filled my being. Mostly, I was angry at God. How dare He let this happen when we were on our way to a different life?

Self-declared atheists not only report getting angry at God, but report higher levels of anger than that experienced by believers. How does that work? Why bother being angry at something which one doesn't believe even exists?
