Christian Support Group Community Group
This is a place for everyone who loves Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior (or those who are seeking Him), to come and discuss important issues in their lives and find support from fellow believers in regards to their faith and life. We uphold the Bible and living a Christ-like life, not as a way to heaven, but as a reflection of our love for God.

It has been awhile since I last Posted anything, so "Thank you" to any who might read this. I pray that it will be worth your time, and have some meaning to greater understanding. As always, if it does help, then All Praise and Credit goes to The Lord.
"Why me?" is a question asked continually. It can be in "Why?" to suffering any affliction, or "Why?" to any struggle in life. Some would even question "Why?" to the fact that pain and suffering exists. We live in a sinful world, because the sin of man was to be like gods.
Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.
Genesis 3:4-6 NKJV
We aren't God. The Lord gave us the Earth, but we don't have the power to control it, nor the wisdom to run it. We await the glorious day that the Earth becomes The Lord's. On that day, there will be no more suffering of any kind, because God is God, and we will never be or want to be God. We Praise Him, because He is Perfect. If given the choice to be a god, the answer is simple. God is Perfect, and The Only Perfect God, and The Only One Fit To Be God. Imagine a human with that power, and the tremendous disaster that would be in that mistake. All Power and Glory goes to The Lord, Forever and Ever.
The Tennis Legend Arthur Ashe once said, that he didn't question why he contracted AIDS from a blood transfusion. He just wanted to live out the rest of his life the best that he could. He did some terrific humanitarian things, and is still an example in his Foundation, after he passed away. He did mention one thing in an interview, that I still remember. It is remembered, because it is sadly a common mistake. Mr. Ashe mentioned that while even Jesus said "Why Me?" on the Cross, that he never questioned "Why Me?".
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
Matthew 27:46 NKJV
This was not a question. This was an answer to:
My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me? Why are You so far from helping Me, And from the words of My groaning?
Psalms 22:1 NKJV
Because Our Lord And Savior Jesus Christ died on The Cross, we are now never forsaken by Our God. The Lord Jesus answered those cries throughout time. He gave His Life, that we should never be forsaken throughout Eternity. It wasn't a "Why Me?".
Think of the question: Would you give your right arm to save someone's life? Many good people would say, "Yes!". Think then on the person who has a Stroke, and their right side is paralyzed. They keep their Faith, and help and encourage others. Someone who doesn't Believe wants to know why that person who is paralyzed on their right side has such Hope. That sharing leads to Believing, and a life is Saved. Often we don't understand the "Why?", but The Lord knows the "Me". He works miracles in things we wish we never had. Our afflictions can be used to Save others. With that, then the question is "Why Not Me?".
We have narrow vision, and narrow understanding. We can't see all that we might help in enduring our afflictions and difficulties. The Lord sees all. Some call it the "Butterfly Effect". The effect of a butterfly flapping it's wings in Hawai'i, and causing a Tsunami in Japan. That even little things can cause huge things to happen. Those little things matter. The Lord can use us enduring our suffering and difficulties to Save others. This is often in ways that we can't even see. This world is a place of suffering, but The Lord answered that call, and can use our suffering, so that others might not ever know suffering throughout Eternity. I pray this made sense. God Bless you all.
