Question by : Why bad things happen to good people. What do you think?
The following story seems to be a good explanation to me. I’d like to see opinions though. If you disagree with the idea of God, please don’t leave comments.
You’ll Find Jesus There
“Tomorrow morning,” the surgeon began, “I’ll open up your heart…”
“You’ll find Jesus there,” the boy interrupted.
The surgeon looked up, annoyed. “I’ll cut your heart open, “he
continued, “to see how much damage has been done…”
“But when you open up my heart, you’ll find Jesus in it.”
The surgeon looked to the parents, who sat quietly. “When I see how
much damage has been done, I’ll plan what to do next.”
“But you’ll find Jesus in my heart. The hymns all say He lives there.
You’ll find Him in my heart.”
The surgeon had had enough. “I’ll tell you what I’ll find in your
heart. I’ll find damaged muscle, low blood supply, and weakened
vessels. And I’ll find out if I can make you well.”
“You’ll find Jesus there too. He lives there.”
The surgeon left. The surgeon sat in his office, recording his notes
from the surgery,”… damaged aorta, damaged pulmonary vein,
widespread muscle degeneration. No hope for transplant, no hope for
cure.
Therapy: painkillers and bed rest. Prognosis:,” here he paused, “death
within one year.” He stopped the recorder, but there was more to be
said. “Why?” he asked aloud. “Why did You do this? You’ve put him
here; You’ve put him in this pain; and You’ve cursed him to an early
death. Why?”
The Lord answered and said, The boy, My lamb, was not meant for your
flock, and will forever be. Here, in My flock, he will feel no pain,
and will be comforted as you cannot imagine. His parents will one day
join him here, and they will know peace, and My flock will continue to
grow.”
The surgeon’s tears were hot, but his anger was hotter. “You created
that boy, and You created that heart. He’ll be dead in months. Why?”
The Lord answered, “The boy, My lamb, shall return to My flock, for he
has done his duty: I did not put My lamb with your flock to lose him,
but to retrieve another lost lamb.”
The surgeon wept. The surgeon sat beside the boy’s bed; the boy’s
parents sat across from him. The boy awoke and whispered, “Did you cut
open my heart?”
“Yes,” said the surgeon.
“What did you find?” asked the boy.
“I found Jesus there,” said the surgeon.
