Going too far

[andreha]

I'm not sure where to put this, as it doesn't belong in GT and certainly not in Testimonies. Anyway:

In life, we can go through times when we ask "But why does God allow this?" Sometimes, we may even rebel against His authority, and thanks to His awesome mercy and forgiveness, we can move on and do His will. But I know of one instance when someone went too far, way too far.

It was in South Africa, in the Orange Free State. There was this farmer who was quite irate at the fact that it just wouldn't rain. So, one day, he looks up in the sky, and curses God. Next moment, a bolt of lightning strikes him dead in his tracks. And there, in that spot, nothing would ever grow again. To this day, it gives me the chills to think on how his conversation with the Almighty must have gone...

He did not fear God.

In the movie "Mully" it shows a businessman from Kenya who looked to the Lord.

It probably wasn't his first fist shaking rebellious act. You are only aware of this guys final act of blaming God. His actions in the dark(ness), is probably what really caused his demise.

One day when I was 5 or 6 my mom lost her handbag while we were out, and I shook my fist at God. My mom said, "Oh honey don't blame God!". And she looked so mortified, I believe that cured me of doing that.

The look from a mother, a bolt of lightning...I see no difference

True that.
