I see downvotes are back and the godless of lemmy have piled on with the skepticism, doubt, anti-Christian hate, etc.
edit: with respect to the pic, indeed God sometimes allows difficulties to continue to encourage people to struggle onward
Regarding bitter replies about innocents struggling, God's goodness is affirmed, the malice of sin (original and actual) and the consequences of death and destruction are also affirmed; many such cases of innocent suffering exist in the Bible, from the stories of Job to that of Jesus' Passion. Why exactly God wills some to suffer and others not to is a mystery.
