When everything in our life is smooth sailing we often don't even remember about God.
But when something unpleasant happens, we instantly want answers from the same God whom we ignore so often.
But who are we to know the answers to everything? Especially when we are not ready to do what God asks of us.
If the fairy godmother tells Cinderella that she can wear her magic gown until midnight, the question should be not Why not after midnight? But why did I get to wear it at all?
We must remember that all goodness is gift from God.
And we should accept like Job, that God is in control of everything.
"Lord you give and you take away. Blessed be your holy name." ( Job1:21)
Very often it is our pride that makes us believe that we should have all the answers.
Sinners think they are saints, but saints know they are Sinners. The best man who ever lived once said, No one is good but God alone.
