I still question the answers
my 20/20 hindsight

About the time I was facing my first pimple, I started to beleive I had all the answers, to all the questions in life. Well here I am many years later, and now I know that the answers were here before the question. It just took someone like myself to question the answers. Each day brings more questions, yet I still don't beleive the answers. WHY? Well I find myself reading more news articles, listening to community outcries, watching the news, and seeing the despair of the average person, while still asking the question. The answers are still there ,yet it seems so many disregard them and make up their own, which in turn leads us to more questions. The death of a child bothers me immensely, and I wonder why it continues, yet I find no solace in the answer. They say it's because the person who committed the crime was on drugs, from an abusive family, mentally unstable, etc., etc., etc.. The answer is really simple. As we may pray,( Thy will be done), we must also understand that we have been given free will. Now that constitutes a problem in the fact that my free will is to help, console,empathize,and show compassion, others choose to exact their free will against mine, which brings us to the beginning of this article. The answer has always been there, we need to see it, apply it, and live by it. GOD's Word in the Old Testament. Then we can attempt the New.
