Why doesn't God solve all problems?

Question

God created man and yet He gives us so many problems. He meant life to be a beautiful thing for man but what does a man do in his life?
When he is small slog in school. Then college slog in college. Then work slog at work. The only time we don't have anything to do is when we are old but that is not the right age to hop skip and jump.
He wanted mankind to be a cool thing but nowadays I find no one appreciating life. Everyone talks about death and ending life and suicides. And the number of murders and crimes have gone up. Why is it so when God meant Earth to be a beautiful place to live in? Why can't we enjoy our stay on Earth then go back as peacefully?

Answer 1

Well I understand what you mean when God wanted the world to be a beautiful place why is it that people kill? Why have people stopped appreciating their lives which is a precious gift.
Answer lies here. In Hinduism there are supposed to be 10 stages of life. After the last stage, everything is over. In short, the earth comes to an end.
Then after some years the Earth begins again. The world has to be bad so that Earth could end. Then Noah's Ark and so forth.
So the world would soon come to an end now. As it's in the last stage called Kalki in Hinduism.
Hope that hepled =)

Not all the earth's problems are due to over population...but if you add in greed and extreme religions, then you have it all. When man has totally polluted the planet and life as we know it dies and all that is left is a gray rock with some thick semi-liquid stuff on it (that used to be called water)...and then the cycle starts all over again...just like a seedling will pop out of the ground months after a forest has burnt it down. The earth will survive...it's just that man won't. God has given us the ability to damn the world, and the ability to fix it. Unfortunately, most world leaders only give lip service, if that, to fix it...it's not profitable enough for their political supporters to fix it...just look at Bush and his big oil buddies.

Answer 3

God gave us free will and it's up to us to do the right thing. For the most part, we make our own problems. We are so good at making something big out of just about anything. The weather forecast example is not as simple as it could/should be. We are told if this/that happens we could get floods etc. Disaster, disaster, disaster. We listen, we panic. We have know control over things but we panic anyway. Human nature I guess. Life is to short, STOP worrying and smell the roses. If you need solace read the Bible. It is full of ways to have a good life and advice on solving our problems. Earth is a beautiful place, we need to look at it, enjoy it and not worry about what we have little control over. Peace :)

Answer 4

I'm glad you are sharing your conversations with God. Not too many people are that sure about the Divine Plan, but obviously He has explained it all to you.
Some people think that God gave us free will to see what we would do with it. And what we have done is to create marvels - such as the computer you are using right now. If no one had to go to school, go to college, go to work. we'd still be living like the animals in the forest, existing on a day to day basis. I think it's much more interesting the way things turned out, so we have been challenged to use the brains God gave us to improve our situation.

Answer 5

Person creates their own problems and pray for the wrong things. Before praying choose what you wish for carefully. God has sent the Holly Quran, the bible and the Torah for people to follow and seek the truth. If you are unemployed, go find a job, if you are sick, go see a doctor. If you are not happy in your life, change your lifestyle or make new friends. God gave you so many choices, and there are usually 2 roads to choose from, right one and the wrong one. If you make the wrong decisions, don't blame God for having problems, just correct your mistakes to make it better.

Answer 6

All these believer-types like to chalk this stuff up to "God's Master Plan" - all the crime, the murders, the injustice, man's inhumanity to man... all of it. But the truth of the matter is this: There is no "master plan". God is a kid with an ant farm. He's not planning anything.

Answer 7

well...God actually does solve all problems. it's just that we have difficulty following directions, taking advice, and persevering.

it's like a fat person who dreams of being skinny. they get advice to stop pigging out, exercise and work on their attitudes, right? well, i don't exactly see a lot of fat people rushing to follow any of this advice. they sit around and are miserably caught in a vicious cycle of their own creation. they blame mcdonalds, their glands or just try to act like being fat is a happy place to be.

the poor single mom who has kids that she can't take care of, and can't find a man to love her and is so tired of trying to take care of everything without help. God and the bible (His word) suggests crazy ideas like celibacy, using high standards to choose a husband, getting married with the heart to commit and sacrifice, or being a part of a church family to help you get through life.

so now insert other "problems" in these models. try drugs, destructive relationships, low self-esteem, etc... God and the bible (His word) provide all of the answers to our problems, but we don't want to hear it or follow it. so why do we blame Him for our own craziness??

for many people, the world IS a beautiful place because they are grateful to be alive and to have people to love and love them back. it is true that God doesn't guarantee that our lives will be peaceful and uneventful, but He does promise to be there to help us get through. and for those of us who believe, we are also committed to help each other get through the ugly times, because the most beautiful thing we can do here on earth is to lay down our lives in love for each other...

Answer 8

Ever hear of the "Fall of mankind".

That is when Adam and Eve blew it and brought the evil called sin into the world.

Answer 9

It's hard to solve problems if you don't exist.

What's a "slog"?

Answer 10

Why should he solve all problems?

He told us what to do and what not to do. 99% of a persons problems or blessings stem from their own actions or lack thereof.
