Why does God let BAD things happen?

I'm 14 and I want to come closer to god And I've Went down the path of sin And I hated it Think of it as this You want to get closer to god but your flesh is pulling you back It sucks But I'm finally getting through and learning about God The 2 things I want in live is to Have a family And go To heaven And see my twin brother But I do understand That not everyone is perfect and have to learn from what they did God bless Everyone And thank you for making this video It helps!

I've recently lost both my parents—my mom passed away on September 22, 2023, and my dad on January 1, 2024. The indescribable pain I'm experiencing has me drowning in grief and struggling to survive each day.There's a lingering question in my mind that I always set aside, knowing it will never be answered: "Why is all of this happening to me? Do I deserve this suffering when I haven't even done bad things, unlike others who harm innocent people?" After watching this video, it brought me enlightenment. I appreciate you creating it. The video randomly appeared in my recommendations, and I believe God's timing is right.

You are SO right. I was a nurse for 20 yrs and went for a back operation but ended up with the surgeon making a mistake and I nearly died, 4 operations later i was left with archonditis and unable to work again and retired at 42yrs old. If this had not happened then I would never have came to the Bible. I am ashamed to say I didn’t even know who noah was and i thought the bible was hymns and prayers. Wow was I wrong! I had no idea it was our history and our future, or that it was from God our creator for help for us!!! So at 50yrs, somehow i came to the Bible and joined a church and i am now baptised a christian! I am SO SO grateful for the EXTREME pain i am in every single minute of the day and night because without it i would still be living life to the full drinking with friends and having no clue about life! Slowly i was backing away from everyone and now it ALL makes so much sense! I am alone (except for my family and church) and i am so much happier than i was! My only huge concern is that my husband doesn’t want anything to do with church or the bible and my kids are the same (20yrs old and 15yr) so i have this extreme worry how i can get them to listen to me😰😢 especially my children! They are all tired of listening to me about the bible and i can’t get through to them! I don’t keep great health now and I know I won’t have a long life which i am relieved about because of pain and hating this horrible world, but i am so so worried about my children 😞 i have asked them to promise me they will read the bible and join a church and be baptised if i die, i am hoping that maybe losing their mum may make them do this?🙏🏽 Thank you SO much for your absolutely wonderful amazing advice and teaching’s🙏🏽♥️♥️♥️

While I am not suffering now, this video (and your others) really help. For those who are suffering, I'm sorry. I pray that God comforts you along the way to the light at the end of the tunnel. Stay blessed.

As a Christian who recently asked God for the answer This Is Beautiful ❤️

When my Mother died of cancer. I didn't feel anything. I thought I should though. I felt guilty for not feeling something. But I noticed that I was calm. I was saved when I was 16 yrs old. So I had a good relationship with God. We talked alot. I had a area back home that was quiet and when things got out of control. I would go there. My mom was saved about the same time I was along with my sister. We felt the holy spirit consume us. I remember being in the car going back home, and how we were all so quiet. Wondering what just happened. I joined the service at 18. My mom and I were at odds with each other. About how to proceed with some things with religion. I left and got away from Jesus. Got caught up in the worldly things. I'm trying to find my way back, because I need it. The power of God in my heart. I miss it so bad. I know I still have salvation, because I never stopped believing in Jesus. And I believe that he was always there when I needed him. I think that I didn't feel anything because Mom lead a good life. By good life I mean that she had a routine everyday to study the Bible, and try to understand it. And I thought that she was in a better place now. So it didn't hurt me that she was gone. In my heart I talk to her like she's right here. Not sure she answers. Maybe I don't hear it. I don't believe God harms any body. I think it just like catching a cold. We are biological on this earth. I have had 4 heart attacks in my life. And everytime it happened I let God take control. I released myself like. I said "Its in your hands now." "What you decide lord is your command. " So he has given me life back and a chance to make good. So that is what I am going to try to do. So now I need to gain the lords trust again. So I want to thank you in your teachings. It is really helping me on this new journey.

I recently lost my dad. It still hurts like hell, but I'm still being the prayer soldier in my family.

"Its not bad to die. Its just something that happens." The way you said this will always stick with me. Arg, it's making me emotional aha

My boyfriend’s mom died when he was 12 after that he lost all his faith in God. This video made him get closer to our lord. Thank you

I’m 54, been a Christian since I was 12, and this has to be the best description of why there’s pain and suffering. This channel is awesome. Ty.

This video certainly taught me something and made me notice a connection. For years in my young age, I was bullied and harassed by so many people... It was so extremely tough to endure, and it shattered me at such a young age. I asked God, "Why?! Why am I going through this! Why am I being forced to endure such hardships?! To be so severely hurt and mentally destroyed?!" I wanted an answer as to why I was being put through such torture. I wanted God to do something to stop the torment I was being forced through. A while later down the line, I understood why a bully of mine was picking on me so much. He was dealing with such painful things in his life himself. I was merely his punching bag, his way to release all of his emotions, and his stress relief. When I heard that he had been dealing with such a hard life himself...I wanted to forgive him. I wanted to say that I understood why he did what he did to me. The bullying he put me through taught me a lesson. Empathy, true empathy. The kind of empathy that really does make you feel bad for the ones that put YOU through a stupid amount of pain and suffering. I used to think that because of the bullying that I was put through, that I would never be able to forgive them. That I would hold a grudge against them for the rest of my life. But that all changed because of this. This lesson of empathy. This lesson, that God taught me of empathy, truly changed that. And it was God that made this happen. This was his plan for me during that time when I was being bullied. He didn't help me because he really did have a plan for me. I didn't listen and I didn't understand at the time but now... Now I do, I understand, I know why that happened, and I know why nothing was done about it at the time. This lesson changed my life and I've been able to perceive things much easier. "Love and forgive thy enemy." Was something God or Jesus said. I don't know the full details, but it was something similar to that nature. And wow, he really did get me to forgive my enemies. This was part of his plan for me. Things will happen, and we may not understand them at first. Eventually, all will be revealed, all will be understood. Thank you God, for teaching me this lesson. To all my enemies out there, to all my haters and people that despise me and may even want me dead... I forgive you. I forgive you all. I wish only the best for all of you. I really, truly do hope everything is going much better for you all now. And to the people reading this who may be dealing with hardships yourself, and may not understand why you're going through them. God has a plan for us all. Eventually, you will understand why you were put through such tedious struggles. People would always tell me that things would get better, I never believed them, and it started to get annoying to always hear the same answer from different people. It makes sense now. The reason it's so widespread, and is the usual answer for such problems...is because it's true. It's real and I've seen the answers for myself. Things do get better. Things will eventually get better, you just have to give it time. Lots and lots of time... Live your life the best way you can, before it's stripped away from you without a moment to even understand what was happening. Life can be unpredictable, like can be cruel. But it's our job to deal with what we may be put through in a humane matter. Because it's all part of God's plan for us. I may have my struggles with God myself, but this video really helped me to connect better with God more. Whatever religion you may follow, it may not be any religion at all. The world really does feel like it's coming to an end extremely soon. We're witnessing it's collapse as I type this, and as you're reading this. It's a scary world we're living in right now, and I feel like we should all start preparing for the inevitable. Live your lives the best way you can...before there's nothing left...

this same question I asked my fellow believer few days ago instead of asking God😢 Now God spoke to me through this video very perfectly❤ Thank you Lord Jesus Christ ❤

I'm actually crying. I already knew that god wanted us in heaven but I can currently FEEL it. Thank you god. and sorry for the wrong I have and will do on earth.

Thank you for this video. My husband came across this video on his feed and he sent it to me because he knew it was actually what I needed for the current season that I’m in. My husband and I especially me am going through suffering, maybe not as bad as what the others are going through but it’s real suffering to me. I have always wanted to be a mom since I can remember, it’s my heart. When my husband and I got married, we thought we would have children and just be a normal family. Fast forward, we’ve been trying for a family going on almost 4 years now , and it’s been a really difficult season for me questioning why God would withhold something good for me? This video was really enlightening to me in my thoughts and feelings in this season. Two things I need to work on: my character and appreciation of the things I DO have ❤

This video made me tear up. I recently lost 2 friends in my sorority and have been asking this question a lot and doubting God even though I know all the good things He has done in mine and other’s lives. Thank you for this and God bless those who are going through hardships🤍

I’ve been abused by my stepdad, neglected and verbally abused by my mom, my real dad left me and I’ve been raped and molested for 7 years by my grandpa , I’ve never stopped believing. I don’t think Satan likes how much love I had for God how much I believed in him so Satan tried hurting me for years I admit he got me a couple times where I questioned God but I never stopped believing and Satan was angry but God said enough and all of the abuse was over he said I’ve been through enough I’ve shown my love… he showed me that I was put through a brutal test but he said enough and it was over Love Jesus Christ ❤

Im 14 years old and I grew up in a Philippines my whole life because my mom sent me there and got a step family who treated me good and loved me so much, but I knew I had a real mom and she’s in the U.S 5 months ago she took me to the U.S too, I was really sad and lost because I was far away from my step family and my friends, and idk why my mom won’t send me back there, I’ve been here for 6 months and I miss them, and just last month I got closer to God hoping he’ll get me back in there, praying to him everyday and I understand why these things happens it’s because he’s trying to discipline me, and a way for me to get closer to him, now if I get back in the Philippines I’ll help my family and friends be more closer to God.

I think I heard God’s voice before through dreams. The first time I was able to listen was when I sinned, during my sleep, I saw a dream with symbols and god talking to me while I’m in my school. The second time I heard his voice was before I got my first communion. I think the dream meant that God had a plan for me. Yeah, I don’t remember dreams often.

I've been homeless twice, I have an unknown illness and have to do testing, i lost relatives on my mom's side, but I still am thankful and hope to see that little light come over that dark hill.

My big sister passed a few months ago - she was 25. I miss her constantly, and I felt like I couldn’t bear the crushing weight of grief and so although I wasn’t practicing my faith.. I picked up the bible as I felt only God could save me from my sorrow. I’m sure you know what I am going to say.. but God held me and lifted the weight of grief, our Heavenly Father never fails us. Pray for my sister Amy that she may rest in heaven until we meet again ❤ God bless you all, my brothers and sisters - I love you all ❤
