The Living Journal of Iris

My name is Iris. I am the wife of an amazing Husband of 17 years. The mother of four wonderful girls (all grown and gone.) And 12 even greater grand children (moving ever so fast towards adulthood.)

No,life is not a box of chocolates it is more like this huge roller coaster and we just roll with the twist and move on. You cannot control people or things, only how you react to the person or situation.

The Plan of the Chosen Parents.

  The Bible says,   You saw me before I was born and scheduled each day of my life before I began to breathe.  Everyday was recorded in your book!  Then why are we here?  Why do you have to take our babies?

Nothing in life is arbitrary.  It's all for a purpose.  God knew that those two individuals possessed exactly  the right genetic makeup to create the custom you he had in mind.  They had the DNA GOD wanted to make you.

It doesn't matter if your parents were good, bad or indifferent.  God knew those two individuals.  He chose them.  Gods plan took into account human error and even sin.  He knew what he was doing.  God has a plan for every person he creates.   He makes no mistakes.  So why does society think they know more than GOD?

This being said ,  who are we to mess with his plans?  I am pondering........  Do we have the right to intervene, if God has marked all our days in his book when we were born?  I am confused.  If our days are written when we are born,  Are we to do our best every day to help others and ease their pain?  Or are we to sit back and let the chips fall where they may?   Are we to right the injustices done?  Or are we to sit back and let God take care of it?  God has given us the ability to help mankind.  But doesn't the Bible say that our days are written before we are born?  So are we messing with destiny?
I am looking for comments so anyone can chime in. 

It always comes in threes,  so i am waiting to see what happens next.  And which loved one will it be.
