Blaming God

We don't always get what we want, at least the major things in life. I want to be a complete genius where I don't have to study in school or anything, but that is something that God just hasn't given to me. Sometimes we get things that we don't want, such as sicnkesses or something bad happening to us. Many times we wonder, where is God in all of this? Why didn't He help? Why am I going through this? Questions that we can't answer, because we do not know what God's full plans are. Even though something negative may be happening, He is still in control. But why do we always blame God for things? I mean, He does so much for us! More than we could ever want. The things that matter most in life are given from Him. Did He not give us His Son so that we may live with Him forever and ever? How could anyone say that God does not love them or God does not care!? So many people get upset because they don't get what they want. Is it because what they want may not be good for them, or is it because God truly just wants them to be miserable? Now think about it. From what I have posted before, does God seem like the type that wants others to be miserable? He does so much for us, and yet we take it for granted. Here are a few things that God does for us.

Psalm 103:2-5, 9-10
2 Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits-
3 who forgives all your sins, and heals all your diseases,
4 who redeems your life from the pit, and crowns you with love and compassion,
5 who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

9 He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever;
10 he does not treat us as our sins deserve, or repay us according to our iniquities.


Forgives all your sins..that is certainly something that He does not have to do, but chooses to do so because He loves us so much! Heals all of our diseases! Thats a promise right there that we can surely hold onto! Crowning us with love and compassion, showering on us just that! He loves us so much and shows us so much compassion in all that He does! This is my favorite part, satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagles. Like I was saying earlier, He does give us what we want, but only things that He knows are good for us and things that are in His plan. Another favorite of mine is that He will not harbor His anger forever. He isn't angry at us forever! He forgives us! Remember that God does so much for us, and it isn't are part to blame everything on Him!
