In John 9 Jesus addressed the issue of personal suffering. When His disciples assumed that a man\’s blindness was the result of the man\’s sin, Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God should be revealed in him” Jesus did not consider the man\’s suffering to be wasted or capricious, because God would be glorified in the man\’s life.
Each day brings new tragedy. A small child is diagnosed with leukemia and undergoes extensive medical treatment only to die in his mother\’s arms. Thousands are killed in a terrorist attack. Hundreds drown in a tsunami, while scores of others are buried in an earthquake.Why an innocent child is born handicapped.Why so many die in an air crash and road accidents.Why so much hunger and poverty.
We are taught that God is love and God is powerful, and we cannot understand how someone like a leukemia child so innocent should be made or allowed to suffer so.
Is God responsible for human suffering? Is God cruel, and vindictive, or is He too weak to prevent suffering? If God truly is sovereign, how can He let someone He loves suffer?
How are these things possible if God really loves and cares for us? Is He a God of suffering?
Man\’s usual response to tragedy is to blame God.But can we?. We cannot comprehend with our little brain why all these happen.
Through the ages, human beings have sought to reconcile their understanding of an all-powerful, loving God with the seemingly endless suffering around them.
Why do bad things happen? No answer.
