This is a response to life’s events that can not be understood by those in spiritual darkness.
2 Thessalonians 5:18 In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
This is hard for us to apply, but not impossible.
Thanks to me I can figure out that I can be a victim or victor by my choice.
Thanks to me I work each day, get a paycheck, pay my mortgage, buy food, feed my family, save money for my future because I know this is the right thing to do.
Thankfully I don't have to offer a money sacrifice to an imaginary friend who doesn't talk to me in order to make it to an imaginary place where no one has ever been too and came back to tell the tale.
I'm thankful I don't waste my time worshipping a being that claims to have killed the entire human race except for 10 people because they didn't obey him.
I'm thankful that I was born with a brain and I'm able to say that I am who I say I am.
I'm thankful my eyes are open and I can see through the tiny narrow path that these people walk their brains through.
If this is not satire it's a distinctively American way of letting God off the hook. Suffering folks don't have to ask, "How could a loving God let this happen to me?" Why, he did it for your OWN GOOD!
I guess now that you've been raped, lost your baby, and your spouse has died, finding out the church is taking people for everything they have ain't so bad!
I'm only fishing for obscure first (no comment or acknowledgement of afformentioned video, don't think I'd like it) but without knowledge I have ignorance so.....still...........kinda...............first?
