Tragic 9/11

Decent Essays
In my opinion, God gives us life, free will, and a good heart. There is no argument that there is chaos and evil in the world. God tries to guide his people down the path that He wants them to follow, but unfortunately, they do not always listen. Even those who do their best to love others and bring good to the world have tragic things occur in their lives. These tragic events are not caused by God but allowed to happen due to free will. God does not just sit back and watch us suffer, however. He hurts for us and tries to bring comfort either through friends and family or at times through perfect strangers. I know that God sent angels in the form of firefighters and paramedics to reach out and comfort those affected by the tragic 9/11 event.

    For example, a firefighter directly saves a person or child stuck in a fire, which is the same way we have a problem with why God doesn’t intervene in these disasters like the fireman. This form of saving is a more direct saving from a tragedy than the plumber I referred to earlier. As the firefighter is directly saving the child from a fire like an act of God, God fixing a leaky sink would not be seen as a problem of evil, more of an inconvenience. The same example could be used for a medical professional, a neurosurgeon doing a heart transplant would be seen as acting as God much more than the plumber. Both the firefighter and the medical field have people depend on them from protecting the people from “evil.”…
