Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson says that “Faith Helped My Depression”  He wrote that “You’re not the first to go through it; you’re not going to be the last to go through it. And oftentimes — it happens — you just feel like you’re alone. You feel like it’s only you. You’re in your bubble,” he said. “I wish I had someone at that time who could just pull me aside and [say], ‘Hey, it’s gonna be okay. It’ll be okay.’ So, I wish I knew that.”
And it will be Ok if God exists and you love him, as he loves you!  He promised, but not that your life will be a rose garden.  Oh No!
 People who say that only bad people suffer or that only good people make it to heaven have no idea what they are talking about! It is not good people that make it to heaven. Forgiven people make it to heaven, and broken people are the ones who really change their own lives and the lives of those around them”
Both Theists, Christians, Muslims, and atheists are wrong if they think that wickedness and evil, suffering and terror are not allowed personally by God. Every single action in the universe, and if such a thing exists, the multi-universe must be signed off at the desk of God Himself. No rock falls down a cliff in Budapest, no deer crosses a street in the middle of forests of Siberia, no electron circles an atom in Amman, without God allowing it.  Yes, that means that no hurricane, no tornado, no handgun goes off, without God knowing about it.  Job did not say, “The Lord gave and the devil took away!” No, when Job’s 10 children were killed, and all his property and wealth destroyed, he turned to the throne of God himself, saying,
“Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.

I write this with razor cuts on my own wrists and my soul of grief.  Tears flow, when I write that pain, hurt, suffering–and I will say this as academically as I can, sucks!
The Bible clearly asks, “does disaster befall a city unless the Lord has done it (Amos 3:6)? What about a hospital?  Yes, God ordained that too. He must if he exists and is omnipotent and omniscient.
I recognize what I’m assuming here. It is hard.  I’ve wept with my cousin when his brother, father of four drowned in the Lake Michigan, as he fell off a cruise ship. I was with others as they as they stood helplessly as their child suffered and died slowly from cancer.  I’ve watched on the verge of madness as an elder I dearly loved, died slowly and how he refused to see his own sins and repent before he died.
Yes, God is supreme Lord over over all the universe, including the hurricane in Texas and the pain over my dear friend’s broken marriage.
Are we really to believe that God allows these things to happen?  How can we not, if God exists?   God cannot be God unless all things are under his authority. All things and I mean all things.  John Piper argues that all things include…
This ‘all things’ includes the fall of sparrows (Matt 10:29), the rolling of dice (
