When we look at the evil that surrounds us each day, and wonder why God is not putting a stop to it, it would do us well to remember that there is this thing called “chose.” God gave us this power because the freedom to choose is the basis of every loving relationship. The flip side of our freedom to choose is our freedom to make a mess of things by making some very bad choices. The good news is that God has chosen to love us despite them.
“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.” John 3.16 Conversations Within” ts 8/30/2020
