I'm 14 and I want to come closer to god And I've Went down the path of sin And I hated it Think of it as this You want to get closer to god but your flesh is pulling you back It sucks But I'm finally getting through and learning about God The 2 things I want in live is to Have a family And go To heaven And see my twin brother But I do understand That not everyone is perfect and have to learn from what they did God bless Everyone And thank you for making this video It helps!

Please pray for me, I just lost a loved one. I recently started praying again after dealing with depression. I know I need Jesus more than ever and I don't want to walk way from him again.

While I am not suffering now, this video (and your others) really help. For those who are suffering, I'm sorry. I pray that God comforts you along the way to the light at the end of the tunnel. Stay blessed.

As a Christian who recently asked God for the answer This Is Beautiful ❤️

I've recently lost both my parents-my mom passed away on September 22, 2023, and my dad on January 1, 2024. The indescribable pain I'm experiencing has me drowning in grief and struggling to survive each day.There's a lingering question in my mind that I always set aside, knowing it will never be answered: "Why is all of this happening to me? Do I deserve this suffering when I haven't even done bad things, unlike others who harm innocent people?" After watching this video, it brought me enlightenment. I appreciate you creating it. The video randomly appeared in my recommendations, and I believe God's timing is right.

You are SO right. I was a nurse for 20 yrs and went for a back operation but ended up with the surgeon making a mistake and I nearly died, 4 operations later i was left with archonditis and unable to work again and retired at 42yrs old. If this had not happened then I would never have came to the Bible. I am ashamed to say I didn’t even know who noah was and i thought the bible was hymns and prayers. Wow was I wrong! I had no idea it was our history and our future, or that it was from God our creator for help for us!!! So at 50yrs, somehow i came to the Bible and joined a church and i am now baptised a christian! I am SO SO grateful for the EXTREME pain i am in every single minute of the day and night because without it i would still be living life to the full drinking with friends and having no clue about life! Slowly i was backing away from everyone and now it ALL makes so much sense! I am alone (except for my family and church) and i am so much happier than i was! My only huge concern is that my husband doesn’t want anything to do with church or the bible and my kids are the same (20yrs old and 15yr) so i have this extreme worry how i can get them to listen to me😰😢 especially my children! They are all tired of listening to me about the bible and i can’t get through to them! I don’t keep great health now and I know I won’t have a long life which i am relieved about because of pain and hating this horrible world, but i am so so worried about my children 😞 i have asked them to promise me they will read the bible and join a church and be baptised if i die, i am hoping that maybe losing their mum may make them do this?🙏🏽 Thank you SO much for your absolutely wonderful amazing advice and teaching’s🙏🏽♥️♥️♥️

When my Mother died of cancer. I didn't feel anything. I thought I should though. I felt guilty for not feeling something. But I noticed that I was calm. I was saved when I was 16 yrs old. So I had a good relationship with God. We talked alot. I had a area back home that was quiet and when things got out of control. I would go there. My mom was saved about the same time I was along with my sister. We felt the holy spirit consume us. I remember being in the car going back home, and how we were all so quiet. Wondering what just happened. I joined the service at 18. My mom and I were at odds with each other. About how to proceed with some things with religion. I left and got away from Jesus. Got caught up in the worldly things. I'm trying to find my way back, because I need it. The power of God in my heart. I miss it so bad. I know I still have salvation, because I never stopped believing in Jesus. And I believe that he was always there when I needed him. I think that I didn't feel anything because Mom lead a good life. By good life I mean that she had a routine everyday to study the Bible, and try to understand it. And I thought that she was in a better place now. So it didn't hurt me that she was gone. In my heart I talk to her like she's right here. Not sure she answers. Maybe I don't hear it. I don't believe God harms any body. I think it just like catching a cold. We are biological on this earth. I have had 4 heart attacks in my life. And everytime it happened I let God take control. I released myself like. I said "Its in your hands now." "What you decide lord is your command. " So he has given me life back and a chance to make good. So that is what I am going to try to do. So now I need to gain the lords trust again. So I want to thank you in your teachings. It is really helping me on this new journey.

"Its not bad to die. Its just something that happens." The way you said this will always stick with me. Arg, it's making me emotional aha

I recently lost my dad. It still hurts like hell, but I'm still being the prayer soldier in my family.

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning

this same question I asked my fellow believer few days ago instead of asking God😢 Now God spoke to me through this video very perfectly❤ Thank you Lord Jesus Christ ❤

I’m 54, been a Christian since I was 12, and this has to be the best description of why there’s pain and suffering. This channel is awesome. Ty.

This video was a great reminder to me that I am still loved and noticed even through tough times.

My boyfriend’s mom died when he was 12 after that he lost all his faith in God. This video made him get closer to our lord. Thank you

I’ve been abused by my stepdad, neglected and verbally abused by my mom, my real dad left me and I’ve been raped and molested for 7 years by my grandpa , I’ve never stopped believing. I don’t think Satan likes how much love I had for God how much I believed in him so Satan tried hurting me for years I admit he got me a couple times where I questioned God but I never stopped believing and Satan was angry but God said enough and all of the abuse was over he said I’ve been through enough I’ve shown my love… he showed me that I was put through a brutal test but he said enough and it was over Love Jesus Christ ❤

This video made me tear up. I recently lost 2 friends in my sorority and have been asking this question a lot and doubting God even though I know all the good things He has done in mine and other’s lives. Thank you for this and God bless those who are going through hardships🤍

This video certainly taught me something and made me notice a connection. For years in my young age, I was bullied and harassed by so many people... It was so extremely tough to endure, and it shattered me at such a young age. I asked God, "Why?! Why am I going through this! Why am I being forced to endure such hardships?! To be so severely hurt and mentally destroyed?!" I wanted an answer as to why I was being put through such torture. I wanted God to do something to stop the torment I was being forced through. A while later down the line, I understood why a bully of mine was picking on me so much. He was dealing with such painful things in his life himself. I was merely his punching bag, his way to release all of his emotions, and his stress relief. When I heard that he had been dealing with such a hard life himself...I wanted to forgive him. I wanted to say that I understood why he did what he did to me. The bullying he put me through taught me a lesson. Empathy, true empathy. The kind of empathy that really does make you feel bad for the ones that put YOU through a stupid amount of pain and suffering. I used to think that because of the bullying that I was put through, that I would never be able to forgive them. That I would hold a grudge against them for the rest of my life. But that all changed because of this. This lesson of empathy. This lesson, that God taught me of empathy, truly changed that. And it was God that made this happen. This was his plan for me during that time when I was being bullied. He didn't help me because he really did have a plan for me. I didn't listen and I didn't understand at the time but now... Now I do, I understand, I know why that happened, and I know why nothing was done about it at the time. This lesson changed my life and I've been able to perceive things much easier. "Love and forgive thy enemy." Was something God or Jesus said. I don't know the full details, but it was something similar to that nature. And wow, he really did get me to forgive my enemies. This was part of his plan for me. Things will happen, and we may not understand them at first. Eventually, all will be revealed, all will be understood. Thank you God, for teaching me this lesson. To all my enemies out there, to all my haters and people that despise me and may even want me dead... I forgive you. I forgive you all. I wish only the best for all of you. I really, truly do hope everything is going much better for you all now. And to the people reading this who may be dealing with hardships yourself, and may not understand why you're going through them. God has a plan for us all. Eventually, you will understand why you were put through such tedious struggles. People would always tell me that things would get better, I never believed them, and it started to get annoying to always hear the same answer from different people. It makes sense now. The reason it's so widespread, and is the usual answer for such problems...is because it's true. It's real and I've seen the answers for myself. Things do get better. Things will eventually get better, you just have to give it time. Lots and lots of time... Live your life the best way you can, before it's stripped away from you without a moment to even understand what was happening. Life can be unpredictable, like can be cruel. But it's our job to deal with what we may be put through in a humane matter. Because it's all part of God's plan for us. I may have my struggles with God myself, but this video really helped me to connect better with God more. Whatever religion you may follow, it may not be any religion at all. The world really does feel like it's coming to an end extremely soon. We're witnessing it's collapse as I type this, and as you're reading this. It's a scary world we're living in right now, and I feel like we should all start preparing for the inevitable. Live your lives the best way you can...before there's nothing left...

I can FEEEEEEEEEEELLLLL all that passion in your voice. Those quick drawings were incredible. Great word. 😢

This video is exactly what I needed to hear and see. I can relate to everything that was said in this video. Now I know what to do, and know why I'm going through this bad time in my life. I believe God has a plan and purpose for me. I must continue to pray, believe, and read my Bible so I can do God's will. Thank you. I appreciate all your videos. God bless

I'm actually crying. I already knew that god wanted us in heaven but I can currently FEEL it. Thank you god. and sorry for the wrong I have and will do on earth.

My Dad passed away when I was 18 and through this situation I found a real connection with Jesus and a true sense of gratitude, I went through a time of loneliness and depression but through prayer and God I have found a true appreciation for my new found friends and the time I spend with my family and the time I got to spend with my dad. Appreciate what you have while you still have it

I love that this channel makes it easy for believers and non-believers alike to understand the depth and implications of the word of God, while also not ostracizing non-believers. This is one of the main reasons i kept watching your channel. Good information, good quality and a good heart! Love you brother, and God bless!

I CRIED ALOT DURING THIS God thank you I am happy to be with God this road is so hard who ever your are don’t give up its hard but now the only life I want he is all make him your all its not easy but he saves me every day God bless

I think I heard God’s voice before through dreams. The first time I was able to listen was when I sinned, during my sleep, I saw a dream with symbols and god talking to me while I’m in my school. The second time I heard his voice was before I got my first communion. I think the dream meant that God had a plan for me. Yeah, I don’t remember dreams often.

Im 14 years old and I grew up in a Philippines my whole life because my mom sent me there and got a step family who treated me good and loved me so much, but I knew I had a real mom and she’s in the U.S 5 months ago she took me to the U.S too, I was really sad and lost because I was far away from my step family and my friends, and idk why my mom won’t send me back there, I’ve been here for 6 months and I miss them, and just last month I got closer to God hoping he’ll get me back in there, praying to him everyday and I understand why these things happens it’s because he’s trying to discipline me, and a way for me to get closer to him, now if I get back in the Philippines I’ll help my family and friends be more closer to God.

Thank you for this video. My husband came across this video on his feed and he sent it to me because he knew it was actually what I needed for the current season that I’m in. My husband and I especially me am going through suffering, maybe not as bad as what the others are going through but it’s real suffering to me. I have always wanted to be a mom since I can remember, it’s my heart. When my husband and I got married, we thought we would have children and just be a normal family. Fast forward, we’ve been trying for a family going on almost 4 years now , and it’s been a really difficult season for me questioning why God would withhold something good for me? This video was really enlightening to me in my thoughts and feelings in this season. Two things I need to work on: my character and appreciation of the things I DO have ❤

You are truly doing a great job. God bless you brother.

My big sister passed a few months ago - she was 25. I miss her constantly, and I felt like I couldn’t bear the crushing weight of grief and so although I wasn’t practicing my faith.. I picked up the bible as I felt only God could save me from my sorrow. I’m sure you know what I am going to say.. but God held me and lifted the weight of grief, our Heavenly Father never fails us. Pray for my sister Amy that she may rest in heaven until we meet again ❤ God bless you all, my brothers and sisters - I love you all ❤

I like this division of head and heart. Could you do one for those struggling with religiosity/ Legalistic OCD?

All such good points. I really appreciate you taking on both aspects of this argument - the head AND the heart. Bad things happen in a fallen world. I heard this quote once; God is not the cause of those bad things, but He is the comforter through them.

This is the best video I have ever seen in my life you practically proved gods existence and the reason people are the way we are. Keep up the amazing work!

I've been homeless twice, I have an unknown illness and have to do testing, i lost relatives on my mom's side, but I still am thankful and hope to see that little light come over that dark hill.

I know this video is three years old, but the message behind this is still extremely strong. And I have to say as someone who has lost family and a matter of them taking their own self out, it is not exactly a fun thing to go through, especially not when you're at a young age... to lose a family member is already horrendous, but to do so at say anywhere from a teenager and younger is horrendous on the mind, because that's one of the key points of your life when you're growing the most. Thank you guys very much for this video, and again, fantastic work... And for those of you who like the music genre Metal, whether you like it or not actually, there is a song by As I Lay Dying called "Redefined". Even if you don't necessarily like Metal, the message behind the song is extremely profound, and I would say even so wouldn't do so strong will to endure. That song comes to mind when watching this video. I'm not going to lie, the about appreciating the family you have left within the video started to get to me a little bit, and the event that happened to me happened 9 years ago... so a bit of advice for anyone going through that, it doesn't go away, it is painful, incredibly so, but the most important thing you can do is not let that Crush you mentally. Don't let it destroy you, because I've been down that black void and had some very very very dark thoughts going through my head at that time, and trust me you don't want to stay there, because I feel as though that opens up the floodgates for something to try to take over you, something you don't want attached to you or around you... Just remember, you can talk to Jesus and anytime, and any given day, and for any length of time. Jesus is not picky about what you say, how you say it, even if you stumble along the way with your words, he just loves the fact that you're talking to him. Always remember that Jesus loves you.

Thank you so much big brother you just help me to answer those who's always asking this question. May God bless you more than what you already got 🙌 Amen !

Thank you GOD for all of the GOOD THINGS happening❤

Brought me to tears thank you

That really hit home! God bless you all 🙏❤️

This video nearly brought me to tears. Thank you.

Bro honestly you are amazing! Thank you for sharing this beautiful video. I haven’t been the best person to be around and I’m trying everyday. Please pray for me that I am not tempted to do sinful things and that I always have God at the forefront of everything I do ❤️ thank you again for this amazing video. God bless you all.

I've had this question before. Before, I had no answer. I had this question now, and now, I know theres a loving God. Thank you💙

Thank you so much for this video,and your channel too it always helps alot when I watched them everyday to make me feel better, thank you for making this a video it really helps me to be more appreciative of what I have,because when I was 3 my Dad died because of a heart attack. It didn't really hurt me because I was just a toddler and didn't understand anything, and as I grew older I started to realise what I've lost and it hurts me the more I grew up seeing other people with a complete parents and sometimes I think God doesn't want me to have a dad or something, and sometimes I also feel alone/lonely but when I saw this channel for the first time,it touched my heart and made me cry, thank you so much for who made this video,because I can understand more about Jesus and be closer to him so I really appreciate this. God bless you for anyone who's reading this ❤️🙏🏻

So powerful bro! Blessings and peace!

This made me feel so much better ,with scriptures so encouraging 💖😍

you gained a new subscriber i came from the how to improve your relationship with God thanks for giving me a starting point time is running out and i was afraid id be left behind

Your videos have been monumental in my understanding of God. Answering questions I get asked a lot with research backing the response helps me be confident spreading God's message as a teacher. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful massage to us.God bless you and your ministry ❤

This is a message my mother needs to hear.

We are not promised joy or happiness in this lifetime, there will be suffering, but we can be assured that it will all be used for good by God. Depression comes from dwelling in the past, anxiety comes from dwelling in the future, we should try to he present minded. Jesus loves you all❤️

This came in my recommended just in the right time. I just got home from the hospita after suffering a stroke. It has altered my life in ways I could not have evered imagine. The suffering is very real and there have been times I asked the very same question, "Why". Thank you for making this touching and eye opening video.

Thank you for doing what you’re doing. God bless you ❤️

I Love you Jesus I am learning to build a relationship with you Jesus Amen

May God have mercy. I have recently just cut ties with my relatives who trusted my bro who is a narcissist and manipulated them to despise me. Eventhough I have been avoiding him for some time. This is harder than loosing my job. Oh God please give me strength to overcome all these.

Thank you so much for this I’ve gone to share this with my friends. This was so beautiful and made me cry . God bless everyone let’s go to heaven together!!

AMEN🙏🙏🙏THANK YOU FATHER GOD, JESUS CHRIST, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT!!!This video was simply beautiful and I’m praying for those who have experienced losing someone they love

I love this video so much.....everything made so much sense, after awhile of pondering on this question....I love your content ❤😊

Understanding that sin is what caused everything bad to occur is honestly what helps me get over the big question.

Thank you for this lesson we appreciate you.❤️ God bless🙏

God richly bless you Impact

I genuinely broke into tears hearing the end of the video, well-assured I never heard words hit so hard in my entire life. Everything is so shockingly true and relatable.

These videos are really helpful in strengthening my faith. I have had a belief for a long time that while God exists-he loves everyone but me. I have a good, blessed life but my confidence is easily eroded due to my inability to really empathize or connect with others. I am glad I have these videos to help me with my perspective. God gave me a beautiful perspective for others-now I just have to include myself in it.

Thank you for this, it really helped me. God bless you, Αμήν🙏🙏❤❤

I just watched this video and WOW, I didn't expect a video to be so... impactful

im a pretty young christian who lost a grandparent due to cancer and what made it all worse was that he was my only grandpa (my other grandpa died before i was born) and it was a hard time but here i am almost a year later finding this and i wanna say thank you a lot and may god bless ur souls and im so sorry for each and one of you who lost somone u loved ive been there and trust me you will get trough it time heals..god bless each and one of you

I badly needed it today. 🥺

This was a fabulous message. Thankyou.

thank you. u just help me to get back on the track! may God bless all of us who thorugh this and knowing that everything comes in a good way on His will.

He is testing our faith. I've failed many times. I've rebelled against you. Turned to other things. Distracted and battling my bank account. I take nothing with me when I die. Too many shootings. Help me know truth from reality. Count your blessings. Positive.

Thank You for doing this 💖 y'all are blessing to ohers :) God Bless people continue to share words of God that may be helpful not only to Christians but for those who needs God 💖

This video got me emotional. It answered ALL the different perspectives to a single question that we had and in a way that actually made sense I’m glad I found this ❤

Your channel explains so much to me, Thank you so much. 🙏❤ God bless. ❤🙏

This is the best explanation I have ever heard on this topic.

my beloved 7 year old dog who has been there for me in the most critical time of my life has recently been diagnosed with bone cancer. we are all absolutely devistated. i've never seen my dad cry before until that night. Rudi was there for me when I suffered abuse, self harm, anorexia, addiction and even had to stay at a hospital for a long time because of this. there is still hope it's actually something different but i dont want to get my hopes up. people can be cruel and just go after our money by giving us false hopes. we don't have money but the doctors are saying we have to pay if we want to know if he is actually going to die or live. what a cruel world. i can barely wait to finally face God and eternal peace, but I will fight either way. regardless of my situation i can feel God's love stronger than ever. I hold no grudge against him. I may not understand and that is okay. i am allowed to cry, be angry and devistated, but God is good, ALWAYS. it really feels like my faith is being tested very very hard right now but thanks to Him i am not breaking and rooted in my faith. HALLELUJAH LORD YOU ARE PERFECT

Thank you for this one. It alleviates my anxiety

Thank you for this video ❤ God bless and keep you my lad 🙏

It's a shame that this video has not been viewed more. I would compare it to the inspiring sermons of those inspiring and true-hearted. Thanks IVM

I'm young, and I recently tried to come back from a life of atheism. You see, I previously lived with my mother who was Christian yet incredibly abusive both mentally and emotionally, and she would tell me, "Oh, god loves you, but if you do this, this, this, or this, you'll go to hell blah blah blah. I learned that people say that God is a loving god, but he never felt loving. So after leaving her house to live with my grandmother, I assumed that Christian stuff was evil, and I unintentionally became an atheist. Then, about a few months ago, i started watching these videos that described hell and how this man 'allegedly' went to hell and came back. I got scared and started praying for god to save me from that, and then I felt like a Christian again. Then I saw a video on my recommended saying that lukewarm Christians won't go to heaven. I keep praying for god to show me a sign, show me that im not alone, and show me that he's out there. But lately, a bunch of shits been happening to me, my anxieties have been getting worse, I pray to god throughout the day because im afraid that if i die right now, I'll go to hell. I feel like God is incredibly judgemental, and I have to walk on eggshells, Im just so fucking scared, any Christian might walk up to me and say jUsT reAd tHe BiBLe, yeah, i do that, is that just supposed to magically fix my unbelief or something? If so, it's yet to do so. I just, i dont know. If my faith is being tested, then Im failing. I dont know if I can do this.

Thank you for this video, it really touched my heart ❤❤

Amazing video. Just what I needed. Thankyou.

This kind of content is probably the most helpful and encouraging out there

RIP Carlos who passed away on Valentine’s Day

Your videos always make me cry because it touches my heart deeply. Thank you for your ministry. God bless you.

This is wonderful done, thank you so much, addressing a topic as sensitive as this is very difficult

Odd... since I knew from my ancestors about WAR - IS BAD, why would I am going through war events in Ukraine? Despite I warned others to beware of disgrace and disrespect of others values and beliefs? Why me? What if I wish everybody to be happy by their own desire, not for selfish desire for good outcome of all of this only for me? Bless all, Kievan citizen.

I'm 16yrs and I'm going through blackmail and serious illness, I pray God sees me through and get me out of the mess i made to myself.Amen 🙏🏻.

Thank you for this reminder. Keep going! Praises and glory to our Lord Jesus Christ, our God. God blessed you all

I am not Christian but this is a beautiful video I really do hope this answer is true 💗💮

I actually pray for the bad people to give their life to God

Thank you,i needed this 😢

This video was incredible amazing thank you

As a Christian, I absolutely loved the second part of the video, but I think the argument on survival of the fittest and morals was a bit weaker. If evolution was real, there would also be room for morals to develop because if everyone lived for their own personal benefit, it wouldn’t be as effective as if everyone worked together. If everyone were to work together, we would need a common code that encouraged certain things and discouraged others, therefore creating good and bad.

God, I’m sorry

Thanks man. You really extremely made my day. May God bless me, you and everyone in this world, Amen.💖💞✝️🛐

God bless you and this channel, so it could reach those people in need just like me.

We suffer so we will be better people. We suffer so we will learn. We suffer so we will understand. We suffer so we will be victorious. We suffer so we will love others. We suffer so we will be Godly. We suffer so we will pay attention. We e suffer so we will be compationite. We suffer suffer so we will be gentle. We suffer so we will be kind.

How can u appreciate light if there exists no light. How can u know love if there exists no hate .....❤💖

Thank God for your videos. beautiful message it helped me.

Thank you for making this video, it is truly inspiring.

I agree that "bad things" are only temporary and somewhat subjectively experiential. I also agree that suffering in past or presence might have some positive effect on our future. And I even agree with the idea that bad things are made by our free choice, or at least some of them (natural disasters are an exeption, i think.) But still, the idea that our world, life and afterlife - the way that all is and looks like - is the "perfect God´s plan" .... that is just unacceptable. There are many, many questions that remain unanswered and blindly ignored.

As far as why bad things like illness and accidents happen, I do have an explanation: *we live in a fallen world* due to Adam and Eve, after being tempted by Satan in the Garden of Eden, *disobeyed God and sinned,* which gave Satan the keys to our world (which Jesus took back after His death and resurrection). The world became *fallen* after sin was unleashed upon it, and became inherently broken. Earthquakes, tornadoes, rock slides, hurricanes... all due to this broken, fallen world we live in now. This is why God will create a *new Heaven and new Earth* described at the end of Revelation. Sin will be GONE, there will be no more evil done, no more rebellion, no more accidents, and no more disasters. And "all sadness and sighing will cease." As it is written, *He will wipe every tear from our eyes.* May God bless anyone and everyone who reads this and watches this video. Hopefully what I said will help a bit.

Thank you God for this heart touching explanation and clearing my all confusion ❤❤❤
