Angry At God

Yesterday's Sunday School lesson was about being angry at God. When circumstances overwhelm us, we tend to become angry. However, do we ever have the right to be angry at God? Asking questions about God's ability to save us from our present unfavorable situation, we tend to only focus on what we are currently experiencing and not on what those around us could be experiencing. Remembering that God is all knowing and has a set time for everything in our lives, we can withstand the long endurance of our often seemingly unbearable situations. Anger and bitterness towards God will not change our mishaps and situations.

Here are a few questions to think about:
  1. Do we ever deserve our affliction?
  2. Do we blame God or feel abandoned by our God when we are afflicted?
  3. Is there an ultimate purpose for our suffering?
  4. Does our suffering change us?
  5. Did we suffer for God's glorification?
