Why


Why do we always ask why do you forsake me oh Lord? Why does your hand come down so hard on me and not the people that do me wrong? There are so many wrong doers in this world why do you persecute me?  Why I ask are we asking the Lord this? Is it not us from our own iniquities, has brought this upon ourselves? Has the Lord not shown you favor for you to only turn your face away from him. Why do we always try and blame the Lord when we are the ones to blame for the wrong doings that we have done in our lives. Do you only cry out when something goes wrong in your life and not when something went right?  Yes we need to cry out to the Lord when we are going through trials and tribulations in our lives but we also need to cry out in thanks for everything the Lord has given us. Did he not say...

"Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil."

So we are to pray thanks to you oh Lord even when our lives are in disarray that no matter what we have done to bring this upon us and what plan you have for our lives that you always love us and will guide us in the right direction.  That you give us the strength to look past what is going on in our lives at this moment and lift our hands and put our lives fully into yours no matter what.
