So many people
Have asked me this question
IS GOD PUNISHING ME
The only way I can
Correctly answer
With truth honesty and evidence
It to teach them
A few scriptures
Show them the Bible
So they can see it for themselves
So I open the Holy Pages
Pointing to
Ephesians 6:12
And I read outloud
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Then I flip the pages to
2 Timothy 4:2
Out loud I read
Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine
Then I tell them
Just one more scripture
And It will bless you with your answer
So then I turn the page
To JAMES 1
And read verses 2-4
Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing
Then I reassure them
That the answer
To there question is
No my friend
God is not punishing you
He loves you
And HIS love
Is unconditional
