Why did God create people who would reject Him?
Why did God create people who would reject Him? A complicated question with an answer that’s perhaps simpler than you may think.
Q: How do you reconcile the moments when you lack faith or don’t trust God?
We can’t overstate that we are fallen creatures in a fallen condition. We’re going to doubt. I don’t want to say it’s normal and we should be okay with it, but I will say it’s normal and it’s okay.
He loves you and me when we fail. God can handle our doubtful prayers.
It’s okay, don’t be hard on yourself. At the same time, don’t stop. Get back in the Word, pray, and surround yourself with Christians who are growing.
Faithfulness is the objective, not success.

Parents, this is the help you’ve been looking for.
