I have come to have peace of mind and hope by believing and praying that God will lead us to a truly peaceful world, no matter how absurd things happen in the world.
I bear witness to this with gratitude.
This is a world full of absurdities.
The oppression of the Uighurs.
Ethnic cleansing by the Chinese Communist Party.
Vaccine genocide by governments and foundations.
Massacres by man-made disasters.
Child abuse by Satanists.
The list is too absurd to continue.
Sad incidents of demons with human faces are happening somewhere on earth right now.
Social networking services (SNS) have also developed in recent years.
So, it feels as if it has become easier to witness tragic scenes, even if they take place in faraway countries.
This may have led to an even greater number of people feeling melancholy and grieving in the face of such sad events.
I used to feel the same way.
The feeling of wanting to turn away and the feeling of not wanting to look away.
My environment was different from those in distant countries and around Japan who had suffered various tragedies.
I was reminded of how peaceful my surroundings were and how I lived a carefree life.
I wondered if there was anything I could do to help.
Then, I was overwhelmed by a feeling of helplessness, of not being able to change things.
And I tried to inspire myself.
I was conflicted, but in the end, I had no choice but to cry myself to sleep, not knowing what to do.
But now that I have found the RAPT blog, I am not the same person I used to be.
I have learned that there is a God who says this.
No matter how absurd this world may seem, heaven always rewards everyone fairly.
I have come to know this truth because a missionary was sent into the world to know God’s thoughts and feelings and to pass them on to us.
Once again, I can devote myself to what I have to do without worrying about unnecessary things.
Humans are really small creatures.
The world is full of things that are beyond our control.
So no matter how much we worry, nothing in the world will change.
But I have learnt that even one person can have faith according to the word that God tells us, and that God hears our prayers.
I have learnt that it is not a dream that God will eventually change the world into a world without absurdity if many such people pray.
So now I am full of hope and joy.
God says ‘pray’.
I have learnt that people who are frustrated because they have suffered or seen absurdity should turn to the Almighty.
I hope that those who are sinking into darkness and sadness and those who are grieving will get real hope from the RAPT blog.
