Answer 1

the bible says and it is written " God is not mocked , for whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap "

YOU are the cause of your own lifes mess
Your decisions started it when you failed to make the right ones

not Gods fault cause you sinned

GOD can fix your mess
but first you have to believe He is
and will and can.......

then get out of the way and let go so He will

Answer 2

Five years ago my friend was riding his motorcycle with all safety equipment around the block at no more than 30 mph. An F250 truck ran a red light, my friend laid the bike down and rolled and skid headfirst into the truck's tire, breaking the fifth vertibra in his back. He is now quadriplegic, he cannot control or move anything below his mid chest. He needs someone to get him in and out of bed, someone to shower him, someone to take the poo out of his bottom; he is in constant pain. He asked me the same question and I said it was within him to choose whether or not to give it a purpose.

He's since fallen in love, gotten his Master's degree, and provides support for his mom who has advanced Multiple Sclerosis. He works to raise money for research and has taught me a great deal about humility, grace, and perspective. He would rather be able to poo in private, but otherwise he's very happy.

Answer 3

I don't really consider myself a religous person, but I do belive in God as a superior power. I went though very harsh time at some point in my life... I have been in a messed up country where human life does not count.... things seemed unrealted, and I thought God was punshing me.. now, looking back at what I went through... I see myself as a mature, better person for somene in my age. Be patient and you will see... I know it easy for me to say it.. but things will go for the best sooner or later.

Answer 4

i truly believe that god does EVERYTHING for a purpose, although it is hard to believe sometimes.

for instance, my father left when he found out she was pregnant (then he went and got some other chick prego 2 months later and stayed with her), he has contacted me 3 times in my 17 year life so far. i only remember 2. but i think he did it that way because i've recently relized that it has made me a much stronger person, i am very strong willed, and confident in my decisions. im not saying that i dont have my problems (i am conquering my depression). but just him not being in my life has made me very strong willed and opinated, and it also has prepared me for lifes letdowns.

2nd thing he did, ive lived with an acholic since i was 6, he is a very angry person, but i dont let him tell me who i am or define me or put me down. another thing that has made me strong.

recently my cat got ran over, god has blessed me with other cats to shower my love on...

and my friend...she is a crystal meth addict, does a bunch of drugs, drinks, and has been raped more times than you can count on 30 peoples hands. her mom was a coke head, and her father never cared...so her grandmother took care of her and tried to raise her in a godly way. well after her 13th bday she couldnt take it no more, and ran away and has been on the run for all those years (Except for the few times the police have caught her and put her in state custody for a few months or so). over the years, she has learned to be very resourceful and street savvy. i think that god has a major purpose for her in her life later. i think he wants to use her later in life for future drug addicts so she can help them and teach them the way other than drugs. for even if she only helps one person, it is the best thing in gods eyes.

and as for you, whatever you are going thru, i think he wants to use you for a greater purpose, to educate others and help them.

Thanks and have a great day!

Answer 5

yes God does do things on purpose. you may think that your life is all hell but really when you get through it you will see what you needed to learn from that, and altought you think you life is so bad just think about what the people in the Bible did just to be with God,

and thanks for the others who care and dont judge God. b/c when you mess up it is not God's fault and if you dont undersatnd that then you really need some prayer

Answer 6

Actually, god had nothing to do with what may have happened to you. You may have a tough situation but don't expect the imaginary god to get you through it. Help yourself through it and talk to friends and family. You have the most influence to your life.

Answer 7

When we are in difficulties, we should thank God for His good purpose, because difficulties make us stronger. For instance, in the business world, competition makes everyone more competitve. In the wildness, we find the same kind of freedom making wild animals competitive. God sometimes wants to train us, so we can win. Whom do you admire, a wolf or a dog?

Answer 8

Situation (good and bad) are given to us to learn and grow. Learning means to understand that good and bad situation will come and we must accept them as it is. When we do so, we grow out of situations.

Everything is perfect from system's (God's) perspective. It's somewhat like - when child is given vaccination injection, child feels bad about it. But doctor will not feel pain as he knows that this is must.

Answer 9

Well, I do believe in karma. If you do something bad in life, it will come back to you ten fold. Bad things have happened to me too in life. But I try to look at it as positively as I can, and in certain situations, learn from them.

Answer 10

God does everything on purpose ... but my guess is that you brought about your current situation all by yourself.

Ask him to help you straighten things out. Then be patient.
