Why Do People Have to Die?

 Lord,

I see people die

People I love

Strangers even

It makes me sad

Why do people have to die?

That is because you are human

You fear because you do not know

But I know. 

I know you do not need to fear

Though you are sad now, 

You will one day rejoice

Why IsThere So much Evil in the World?

 Lord, 

There is so much evil in the world. 

It seems to be increasing. 

I see it all around. 

How can I help others?

Those who don't know you?

What do I do?

God: 

Be the example of someone good, 

who has seen God's mercy, 

And knows what He can do and knows His power.

Try to reach them

Show them you care and want what is best for them.

They they will trust you,

open up to you, 

let you in.

when they let you in, they will also let me in.

God: 

To serve me. 

Lord: 

Why?

God:

Because I made you. 

Lord:

God: 

"So" says the clay to the potter. I will make something beautiful with you or you can just stay a lump of clay. A lump of clay asking, "why am I here?"

Where Were You When I Failed?

 Lord,  I tried to succeed, but failed.  Where were you, Lord? God:  I was there all along,  wondering when you were going to stop trying to...
