Yesterday Shannon asked me why would God allow Jerry to persist so long after his surgery in such a poor state of life? To me this is very similar to the question of "Why didn't Jesus heal everyone he met?" That's a profound question. I don't have an answer for it "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways" declares the Lord. What I have found is that the world was set in motion at the time of creation, when the Fall occurred the decay of this world started. Sometimes God steps in from outside of time to intercede and other times He doesn't. What we have to remember is that God is sovereign and that even though we don't and can't understand everything that happens this side of Heaven God is on the throne!
Death comes in many forms and the death rate is 1 for 1, everyone must die the physical death because of the Fall. We live in a fallen world, do we have to accept that fact? NO! There is hope! God the Father sent His son so that after our physical death we can have eternal life. There will be a day when we no longer ask why.
