I used to be a big believer of the first, but now as I get older - the second seems to ring much more true......

some things are random in life and others, which appear to be random, aren't. One can gleem something, some purpose from seemingly random events. I don't think everything that happens is random--there are connections. Also, some are able to recognize something well beyond the surface--these individuals are more self-actualized, while others basically subscribe to the philosophy that is more commonly shared. For example, Helen Keller said her blindness was a gift and that she saw the world in a very special way--different and perhaps more brilliant than the vision of a "sighted" person. sometimes the reason can only be discovered after discovering the lesson from a situation/event.

in the beginning, once you're a actual christian, you're in a relationship with God. One the place you're strolling and speaking with God and additionally you're no longer obeying the Bible or anybody for that count. we are loose in Christ and do as we elect and stick to God because of the fact all of us be attentive to its the suitable way in life. As in each little thing happens for a reason like-if I see a water puddle on the floor, there's a reason, hence a reason. Then specific each little thing happens for a reason in all and sundry life. in case you're asking if in the Christians life those motives are significant, specific they are. each little thing all and sundry does impacts the supernatural international at present and finally the actual international. How we impact that's what concerns and thats the version between a christians impact as adversarial to a non christians. yet each and anyone is here for a reason, the region-the time for a undeniable reason. this reason is fulfilled once you have a relationship with God. it would fall rather short in case you didnt because of the fact he's in a position to do a paintings of perfection for you. evaluate life a tapestry and each and each life is a thread. that thread must be a undeniable coloration or sort of colorations to make the completed photograph completely and additionally you may in easy terms do so with God. yet the two each and anyone has thier place in the tapestry that for the time of easy terms they might fulfill, in the event that they committ suicide, that leaves a hollow in the tapestry, in the event that they do no longer stick to God the colour with be off or the thread would be askew. Its relatively very like that. age 40 christian mystic catholic

I believe it is the randomness of life and our choices. When things seem to happen for a reason, I think that either our higher power intervened or it was merely coincidence...good or bad.

Everything happens for a reason. By that I mean there is a lesson to be learned from everything. In the good and the bad. It is usually just harder to recognize the lesson in bad situations because it is not always so clear.

Here is the dilemma:
The human brain likes to find connection between things, (hence one of the fundamental basics of optical illusions) so it is natural that, even if life is totally random, people will see a connection between events.
On the other hand I beleive in a higher power and such a belief dictates that everything in existence is connected through that source

Everything can be linked to a reason....just as we get older, we're no longer able to associate events with the appropriate reasons...

I think its up to you. You can chose to act on the reality of your life with deep thought, intentions, and being determined.....Or you can chose to react to the life that is happening.

No, I believe that all things come together for good. Let me give you an example. I saw this boy at school when I was in high school. No big thing. I later joined the Navy, did modeling school, etc. Years later, I started dating this fella that was an absolute jerk. BUT, his brother was nice. After a while, I entered an ad in the personals here in our local paper. I got an answer from that fella's brother whom I had seen at school when I was young. We have been married 14 years now. Coincidence? Nah. I don't think so.

Everything is life is random,
You might like to think that its probably part of a bigger master plan, but its all dependant on major factor- You!
Apart from you and your effort and actions, everything else is random!
