Why Does God Allow Us To Suffer

God, does not want us to suffer,
he has told us, in the Bible, 
how to build a better life,
Proverbs says time and time again,

"Seek knowledge"
knowledge leads to careers, 
education leads to jobs,
wages to support ourselves,

"Eat drink and be merry"
"sit not at the table of the drunk"
So drink and enjoy your life,
but don't let it, destroy your life,

the parable of the talents,
invest Gods money, 
to make five times more,
creating jobs to overcome poverty,

God does not want you to suffer,
yet people do no follow, 
the word of God,
people do drugs,

people join in the drug trade,
people allow poverty, 
to rule the world.
people create wars, 

people create violence,
people rape children, 
people waste his money,
people steal,

God leaves people, 
to do what they want,
but they will be judged,
at the end of their lives,

Like a farmer God created 
the perfect world, 
but Satan filled the world,
with imperfection.

God waits like the Farmer 
waiting for the crops to grow,
seeing your life,
he will choose if you should be saved,

the way you treat others,
determines, whether you 
are apart, of the good crop
or the bad,

God does not want you to suffer,
yet people create the suffering,
it's time, that the people
learned to work together,

saving, investing, 
creating work,
to overcome the poverty
and suffering of others.
