Day 25

“There is a purpose behind every problem.”
Purpose Driven Life
Point to Ponder: Day 25

This is a difficult concept for me to reason and to understand. It seems to me that it can lead to apathy and complacency if not properly understood.

There may in fact be a good that comes from the problem but that does not mean we should continue to live with the problem or to be a part of the problem.

Everyone makes mistakes,
It’s what you do with them that counts.

As “Christians” we should never be content to be a part of the problem simply because this world is temporary and “will pass away” (whatever that means).

We should be active in leading the way to fix the problem. In my experience the “world” seems to be leading the way and “Christians” seem to be in the way.

In fact Christians seem to contribute to most of the world’s problems today poverty, war, oppression, sexism, racism, pollution. It seems that all Christians care about is saving their individual souls and not saving God’s creation.

Why is it that scientists who believe in the “evil” theory of evolution care about protecting the environment and Christians who believe in “Intelligent Design” could care less?
