Why Do We Blame God for our bad decisions

head,blame 6985

I find it amazing that every time human beings make mistakes they either blame another human being or they blame God. Proverbs 19:3 The foolishness of man perverteth his way: and his heart fretteth against the Lord. Here God is telling us that we ruin our lives by our stupidity and then we blame him.

One of the greatest gifts that God gave to humans is the ability to make choices, we have been given free will to create what we want of our lives choose the paths of good or evil, determine the kind of life we want; whether it is good or bad, we can decide to be great humanitarian or not.

I choose this subject primarily because I am sick and tired of people not taking responsibility for their actions.  We continuously make counterproductive decisions, and when we fail, we tend to believe that God is to be, blamed for all our woes.

God does step in when we make our mistakes, but we have to humble ourselves before him and ask for his help, guidance and sympathy.  There are those who say they do not believe in God because when they do the lotto, God did not make them win.  Do you people believe that God has nothing better to do but to wait for them to play the lotto and make sure they succeed.

Human beings are our own worst enemy; we do not seem to have the ability to coexist, we then believe that killing each other is the only way; we tend to think that war is the answer to all our problems and most of all we fail to take responsibility for our actions.

We seem to forget that there are two forces in the universe, on the one hand, there is God, and on the other side, there is the Devil.  We have to recognize that the devil only job is to create chaos, he not there to oversee peace, he wants war and if you are not connected to or have your anchor firmly on God the Devil will play you for all it is worth.  Despite the devil’s behaviour we still have free will to make valid choices in our lives and stop blaming the creator for our infantile problems.
