In most cases I see, a tragedy happens before one believes in God. A near death experience, cancer, divorce, etc.. Why must we wait until we are faced with such problems before we turn to God? Why do we treat God as a back-up?
A lot of people wonder why God allows bad things to happen. I think I see why now...in good times, do we turn to Him? Do we count our blessings? More often than not, we forget to be grateful and demand for more. We don't see the bigger picture and persist in thinking that we are being neglected and forgotten when actually it's the other way round. We forget that a relationship doesn't work when only one side is giving.
What makes matters worse is when such bad things happen, we refuse to turn to Him, to pray, to plead for mercy, to ask for help, to believe. We turn away while we continue blaming Him for all the unfortunate happenings in our life.
Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed,".
John 20:29
