Once again, welcome to all of you and thank you so much to ecotrain for giving us the task to respond once again. I request @ecotrain to increase the number of questions by asking at least two to three questions a week and distributing prizes for the correct answers. I hope our dear community will consider this. Let's move on to this week's question which is a very difficult question and must be pondered on.
"If there is a God why is there so much suffering in the world?" Of course, there are different answers to this question according to different mindsets. Spiritual people understand this question better and can answer it in the true sense. For non-religious people or those who do not believe in God, the simple answer is that God does not exist, but that is not the case. God exists and is the owner of the universe.
LIFE DIFFICULTIES AND SUFFERINGS
Before I move on to the answer, let me explain some of life's difficulties. This world is full of sufferings which come before man at every step like poverty is a problem which afflicts man and it is this poverty that brings man to the brink of destruction. A poor man is so caught up in difficulties so that he is even forced to commit suicide. Homelessness is another major problem that sits on the side of the road at night or during the day, hoping for help.
Some are affected by marital life, some are left with job issues but the problem does not seem to be solved. Some are sad because they have no children, while others are suffering from drought. Therefore, every human being who seeks intellect and consciousness is caught up in the difficulties of life. If one is able to go through hardships, then some difficulties go beyond limits.
MY ANSWER TO THE QUESTION
"If there is a God why is there so much suffering in the world?"
Before answering, I thought it necessary to mention the difficulties that are linked to this question. I will answer this question according to my BELIEF and RELIGION. Of course God exists and life has its difficulties. In my opinion, it is in the hands of God to bring difficulties or to solve the problems. God loves His servants, so He tests them with difficulties. He wants to strengthen it so that there will be more patience and courage in it and surely it will reward him in the hereafter. Another reason is that God sends troubles on His beloved man because He wants to protect him from big dangers, that is, He removes big troubles through small troubles. The third reason is that God tests His servants to see if they will be thankful for their patience or if they are ready to fight against God. Thus God causes His servants to get into trouble for many purposes.
OTHER REASON FOR THE SUFFERINGS
The reason for the other difficulties is that the person whom God does not like (the reason for not liking is disobedience to God) makes him suffer as a punishment. God afflicts man with torment and hardship according to his disobedience. He starts with a small difficulty and warns him to get well and repent of his sins.
HUMAN BEING CONCEPT ON SUFFERINGS
Now it is up to the human mind how he understands these difficulties. If he is a good person then he takes these difficulties as a test and is patient. If a person is disobedient, he will become more rebellious, for which he will be punished in the Hereafter.
This is the answer to my question why there are problems and sufferings in life if there is a God.
Thank you for stopping by.
