We all have a hand in it… Yes, we do!
But what about God’s hand, where is it in this?
I asked myself this question that nite when I got that message, I loudly cried out to Him and said No! It was and still not fair! I asked Him what was He upto, what does this death mean to us, I even went so far to asking Him why her and not(will not mention). I questioned Him, I pleaded with Him, asked Him to perform miracles, even mentioned Jon Snow in my plea.
He only said this;
“Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I HAVE NO PLEASURE IN THE DEATH OF THE WICKED; BUT THAT THE WICKED TURN FROM HIS WAY AND LIVE: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?” – Ezekiel 33:11
I didn’t understand what He meant nor did I care. All I wanted was Julie back, we had plans, she was excited to work with me. She had solutions to my accounts and tax problems, she was my run to for a joke, a call to her was a refill to my peace and charm cup.
On sunday I re-read the verse, and somehow understood it. (Still read and pray for an in depth understanding, @Nevendar and @therisingpage I need your help on this.)
He said He doesn’t delight or take pleasure in the death of the wicked, it grieves his heart, so Julie must have grieved HIM because, I think we wouldn’t be doing the things we are doing in honour of her (Juliet Tumwesigye Birungi Foundation). Building a legacy for her even in death.
Then I found this verse,
“And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and GRIEVED HIM at his heart.” Genesis 6:5-6.
Now I am repenting!
