A conversation about God

This is one of the best explanations of why God
allows pain
and suffering that I have seen. It's an
explanation other people
will understand.
A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut
and his beard
trimmed. As the barber began to work, they began
to have a good
conversation. They talked about so many things
and various subjects.
When they eventually touched on the subject of
God, the barber said:
"I don't believe that God exists."
"Why do you say that?" asked the customer.
"Well, you just have to go out in the street to
realize that God
doesn't exist. Tell me, if God exists, would
there be so many sick
people? Would there be abandoned children? If God
existed,
there would be neither suffering nor pain. I
can't imagine a loving
God who would allow all of these things."
The customer thought for a moment, but didn't
respond because he
didn't want to start an argument. The barber
finished his job and the
customer left the shop. Just after he left the
barbershop, he saw a
man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair
and an untrimmed
beard. He looked dirty and unkempt.
The customer turned back and entered the barber
shop again and he
said to the barber: "You know what? Barbers do
not exist."
"How can you say that?" asked the surprised
barber. "I am here, and
I am a barber. And I just worked on you!"
"No!" the customer exclaimed. "Barbers don't
exist because if they
did, there would be no people with dirty long
hair and untrimmed
beards, like that man outside."
"Ah, but barbers DO exist! That's what happens
when people do not
come to me."
"Exactly!", affirmed the customer. "That's the
point! God, too, DOES
exist! That's what happens when people do not go
to Him and don't
look to Him for help. That's why there's so much
pain and suffering
in the world."

True enough!

BE BLESSED & BE A BLESSING!

Sunset by the City (I wish!)



This was taken in-front of the Metrobank - Iba, Zambales Branch last June 19, 2008. It was a beautiful sunset, too bad i wasn't on the beach.



This was taken August 17, 2008 at the National Bookstore at the Olongapo CIty Mall. The book was stacked this way and i was amazed how it read. "The Big Book of Joking Around on truth."
