Kevin's sister and Ray of Light,
That question of why do the good have to die and the bad ones are left, is one that sticks out in my mind or rather stays on mind. Why?
The only reason I can come up with , is they have fulfilled their purpose on this earth. I am a firm believer in God. I believe we are put here to serve God's purpose or rather we are predestined that is a better way to put it. I think once we have done what we were put here to do. God takes us on home.
Why would He want to leave us in such a vile and hateful place . When He could have us back home in Heaven ? And lets face it compared to Heaven , Earth is a very vile and hateful place.
Please feel free to message me about your brother and tell me about him. There may be somethings you don't want to go into about him and things in his life. You don't want to go into here out of respect for your brother. I believe I may understand matter of fact I know I would.
My brother was a Pastor at one time and then some things happened and he backslid. He went through a rough time and did things he wished he had not of.Which may have contributed to his being paralyzed the last four years of his life. After the wreck he realized God was the only being he could fully rely on. The last 4 years of his life, I learned a lot by watching my brother's struggles in his life and how his faith carried him through it. He learned from his mistakes and so did I.
Please feel free to message me.
