Isn’t it kind of implied? If god if omnipotent and omniscient then anything that happens is allowed by him.

Would it be fair to say that, with grieving and most sadness, God could be weeping with us in our suffering? I'm still pretty new to being a Christian (about 8 months) so if that's wrong then let me know but that's about my perspective.

Someone in grief doesn't need to be made to look towards the future. What is and was is more than enough to process.

Instead of “this is God’s plan,” try “this will not derail God’s plan for you.”

But then there is the question again: why does all the bad stuff happen? why does God let this happen?

I think being there for a person and listening is far more important than saying “the correct things.” And then comforting them by assuring them that they’re going to get through whatever it is. People need hope and it gives them courage to keep on going.

Another solid video, Fr Sam. You have a great media ministry. I’m glad your reach is beyond your local parish.

This was very trauma informed which I am sure he would love. I am so glad there are pastors out there like you. Not religious, was though, and still love to talk with my friends about their faith. Beautiful input.

Thank you Father Sam. You’re teaching us Job 2:11–13. We be with them, we stay with them, we love them, and we do it all in silence and solidarity with them.

Being told that right after my dad passed as a teenager was one of the most hurtful things I’ve ever experienced.

I’ve personally found it most comforting to think there is no plan. God is not done great tactician or chess master dictating how he intercedes to glorify himself or bring heaven to earth. He’s a father who is just wrangling a lot of unruly kids. Maybe he knows soccer practice is at 3 and he’s gotta get his kid to put on their kleets but he doesn’t have the kid’s life planned 50 years in advance

You’re healing my inner child who was taught God wanted me to be abused because He had a reason (either my sin or so He could teach me to rely on Him). I’ve been fighting to believe God wouldn’t want me to be abused and He wouldn’t put that on me.

I recently had a conversation with a Christian about why I no longer attend church and I mentioned the fact that I was 12 and my dad died despite our faith and constant prayers for him and how emotionally difficult that was for me. Instead of validating how I felt and my human emotions, she felt the need to defend what God did by letting my dad die and that "maybe he had sins you didn't know about and that's why he died." Needless to say it didn't make me want to attend her church.

Someone telling me “god needed another angel” when my sister died turned me away from religion.

When my brothers were dealing with some trauma as children, our uncle told us "God is not surprised by this. We're not prepared to handle this, but He is." It was exactly what we need to hear. God didn't plan it, but he had given us what we needed to survive and would continue to do so.

I was told that my disability was part of God’s plan. I wasn’t born with it, I had childhood broken bones that weren’t taken care of. God’s plan wasn’t for me to be in pain. God has a plan for me DESPITE what was allowed to happen to me. But I’m still struggling with anger around the situation so maybe I don’t have any authority to say that.

As someone whose father had a long battle with cancer and eventually passed from it, people saying this would infuriate me.
