The suffering, pain and sorrow being experienced, and which are becoming too frequent on earth today, cannot be attributed to the Almighty Father.
For He is Love and Justice.
And He Wills only joy, happiness and peace for all His creatures in His Holy Laws that govern Creation.
He neither plans, nor favours His creatures with sorrow or calamities. He never wishes us pain or tribulation.
His Laws expressing His Holy Will, and Which govern Creation, as well as all happenings therein, including the earth, all contain, express, and give Goodness.
They all contain, express, and give Love, unimaginable Love. They express Justice. They show infinite Mercy.
They all give adequate and right Guidance for all His Creatures to comply with, in order to exist and live joyfully anywhere in His Creation.
What caused suffering?
With His Laws, Whose end goal is Love for all His creatures permitted existence in His Creation, the Almighty Father Created the Order to which all His creatures must conform in order to live joyfully anywhere in His Creation.
He weaves only Love, Justice and Purity in His Laws.
Such that any of His creatures permitted existence anywhere in His beautiful Creation, who lives in accordance with these Laws expressing His Holy Will, is automatically assured of Joy and Peace.
Notably, all the little beings working with Nature – the flowers, grasses, fields, trees, plants, bushes and forests, and entire vegetation; water, streams, rivers, seas, and oceans; air; and the earth – comply with These Laws.
So do all the other beings working with all other bodies, every other thing everywhere on earth. So do every other creature on earth, apart from man.
Sadly, it is only the human beings who stand apart, who disregard, and disobey These Laws.
We do these generally in our sowings through our wrong volition, with the thoughts, words, and deeds emanating from it.
And this disobedience has consequences.
Suffering is never Willed by the Lord.
Suffering, sorrow, affliction, calamity, or misfortune, or whatever other undesirable experiences that befall man on earth, or anywhere else in the beautiful and orderly Creation, are alien to the Light.
And are thus alien to the Holy Will of the Almighty Father!
These are caused by human beings, generally by us, who torture and torment ourselves, and others our neighbours with wrongs, wickedness, and injustice.
Through our straying away, and non-compliance with the Laws expressing the Holy Will of the Almighty Father. Which He lovingly wove into His Creation to maintain Order.
So, whenever a human being is knocked down by suffering, sorrow or misfortune, it is wrong to attribute this to the Holy Will of the Almighty Father, Which knows neither hate, nor wickedness, nor injustice.
Which knows only Love, from Which Justice and Purity are inseparable.
How did suffering come on earth?
We should remember that the earth today is the dominion of the Darkness.
That by virtue of this, humanity on earth today is in the Darkness. And we live in desperate times. That we are embedded in the Darkness.
Which we had reared through our serial, frivolous, and wanton disobedience of the Natural Laws governing Creation in our past earthlives, and even now.
Notably too, the volition being generated and nurtured by mankind on earth today, as well as the thoughts, words and visible deeds emanating from it, are generally evil and wrong.
They are generally alien and hostile to the Light!
So, the arrows and spears flying here and there, are being fired from the evil volition, generally of human beings on earth.
The evil volition, which today dominates on earth. And from the thoughts, words and deeds generally emanating from it.
Or, the painful experiences are the consequences of our earlier wrongs through our transgression of the Laws. Which are now ripe for redemption to free us for ascent.
We should note that wherever these arrows and spears from the Darkness strike anywhere on earth today, they do so in perfect Justice and Love.
And strictly in accordance with the adamantine Laws of Reciprocal Action, Sowing and Reaping, and Gravity of the Almighty Father.
Therefore, we are to blame
No matter the number of years, or even earthlives it takes, whoever sowed in the past, or even now, must reap at ripening, good or evil.
So, it is wrong, and indeed blasphemous, to attribute suffering and sorrow being experienced on earth today to the Holy Will.
The Light is not to blame for the suffering, afflictions and sorrow that we experience on earth today.
We, the earthly mankind are to blame for these.
And in Love that passeth all understanding, we are being made lawfully to experience the consequences of our errors, of our wrong sowings sometimes in the past, or even now.
To redeem the guilt clinging to us; become changed and better human beings.
Be freed of the clasping of the Darkness; and humbly start afresh on our highly necessary journey upwards towards the Light.
