The title is not very encouraging, is it? But if you really dig deeply into the devotional today, you will find that nature is damaged resulting in disasters like floods and hurricanes because of the sin n the Garden of Eden. This damage and confusion in nature was not God’s original plan for His creation. Neither was death. Man was meant to live forever in communion with God, in a perfect place that He had created for them. But sin brought decay and ultimately physical death. Not one doctor or any elixir, no matter what they proclaim, can stop the ravages of death forever. As the devotional points out, we are not meant to live on this damaged earth forever. God has a better place that Jesus went ahead to prepare for us, the perfect place in communion with God that He meant for us from the beginning. So, does God cause the bad things to happen? The death, destruction and decay? No, sorry to disappoint you, but all the bad things cannot be blamed on a loving God. That responsibility lies squarely at our feet because we are all sinners. Thank God we have been saved by grace and this life is not all that there is!
