These are the kind of questions I was asking back in 1973 when I first started following Jesus of Nazareth, and the kinds of lessons I was learning at that time. I was looking around me at things going on, and had so much to ask, now that I knew the Answer Man. As a result, all I can say is:
Trust your questions to the One Who Sees the past, present and future and knows every outcome and the reasoning behind it all; that His ways are not my ways, that He knows best about everything, and that we should just trust him, no matter how crazy it seems at times.
lyrics
Why are some people born blind?
Is it just to help me appreciate my eyes?
That seems crazy, Lord, oh so crazy, Lord
But I know that You know what You’re doing
It’s all part of Your Plan
Why’s the world so full of hate?
Is it just to teach me hunger for Your love?
That seems crazy, Lord, oh so crazy, Lord
But I know that You know what You’re doing
It’s all part of Your Plan
Life is a teacher, teaching us how
To laugh, to live, to love—and to cry
We’ll be much better seeing this all,
Than living our lives with the blind
Life is a mother raising a son
Teaching him how to be
Don’t you grow bitter, it’s all in His plan
Would you rather not know her at all?
Life is a lover, caressing at times
At other times bringing such pain
You’ve just got to love her though oft times she’s cruel
As you love her, she’ll love you the same
Life is a question, asking us now
“Which way are you gonna choose?
“Will it be Jesus, and love evermore,
Or going the way of all fools?”
