A 77-year-old family friend was angry with God.
He was born with only one (1) kidney, has congenital heart disease, and was hospitalised due to trouble breathing. He was angry at God for the sufferings his illnesses caused.
We told our friend:
“Should you not be grateful that you have lived 77 years despite your illnesses? That you have done well in business and have a happy marriage with successful children?”
Our friend didn’t respond but we think he got the message.
Do you, too?
