I looked up and asked "why God is all of this happening".

We'll never know why, but damn, it seems like if hell is taking over the planet

God will rescue his beloved creation before we destroy ourselves completely. He promises in the Bible. But it won’t be pretty. Satan rules now. Give your heart and life to Christ. He gives peace and courage to get through trouble. Maybe not total safety but the Holy Spirit to overcome and persevere. How do I know? I recommitted last summer and He gave me utter peace, hope and strength. Do it today. Let HIM change you. He will prompt you. Pray for discernment in this world full of lies at every turn. He will Take fear away. He loves you. He has plans for you and not for harm. πŸ™πŸ»πŸ™πŸ»πŸ™πŸ»

In one of our Marian prayers ("Hail, Holy Queen") we lament to the mother of G-d, "to you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve...to you do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears..." Those descriptions resonate. I do feel banished. I do feel that we walk in a vale of tears. But then I try to remember that G-d is sovereign and as talk show host Steve Deace says, "our G-d walked out of a tomb."

One of my daily prayers includes a psalm-like prayer sent out by Bishop Rene Henry Gracidao early in the pandemic. It includes these lines:

Vindicate your warriors, O Lord, my God, according to your righteousness;

and let the enemy not rejoice over them.

Let them not say to themselves,

"Aha, we have our heart's desire!'

Let them not say, "We have swallowed them up."

Let them not say, "Hah! Where is their God?"

Let those with evil intent be put to shame and confusion.

πŸ—¨ Your search - "why God is all of this happening" - did not match any documents.

↑ Google's at a loss either 🀦

Google doesn't, (or cannot, perhaps?,) read the Bible.

Hmm, who was it that couldn't touch the Good Book without getting burned fingers??

I believe Google censors or suppresses God. He is not part of the narrative tptb are weaving.

Evil is only allowed to rule and reign for a little while. We know who wins in the end. Our job is to stand for truth and right, no matter what foe arrays themselves against us.

We have God and all of Heaven on our side, and He wins in the end.

It is HELL. We need to close the doors to it, but please let's remember to toss Satan inside first, this time!

I won’t have to. God will and it will be pretty noticeable I expect. We are in spiritual warfare now.

Totally correct, in my personal view. Prayers are very important now, as well as actions.

This is NOT HELL. HELL IS a real and eternal internal war worm infested place for those who refuse to honor and obey The Creator, like Him or not, He died as a servant to His own creation to reconcile us to a loving Father/God. You CAN TRUST Him as He tells us who He truly is in His written Word. But test the spirits.

❀️. We are a pampered, spoiled generation accustomed to ease. Indeed this is not hell, just very difficult times for those who grew up in the fantasy world of Walt Disney.

A big difference is that back in the 50's we had a daily slanted newspaper to give us the "worldwide" news and that was it. We only knew what the powers that be wanted us to know. Media today allows a total barrage from every direction. I'm guessing today's pressing issues were going on back then but we were more or less sheltered from it.

Not even close. God is waiting to see who His remnant are and He wants us to become aware that we ARE the remnant. Then He will empower our actions with His Spirit.
