Why does God do this??

“Why does God do the things that makes us feel,
that life is a suffering?” I asked myself one day.

“Why does God let people be ill?
Why there are obstacles in the way?”

I wondered a lot and waited for reply,
Here is what I got, my own inner voice had a say:

“Because God knows we can endure with a smile.
God wants to make our emotional muscles stronger.

And then use our strength
to build a beautiful world,
& glorify the existing world even further!”

I thus realized that God is not cruel!
He is in fact very loving and kind!

Something wonderful may come,
We will just have to wait until we find!

I whole heartedly believe in the world’s best artist,
He, I would totally trust.. even if I were blind!
