Why does Your God remain silent in this Corona crisis?



This week I received this email from someone:

Dear Frenkie, Every day I check your blog to see if there is any message from God in this crisis. But every day in vain.Why does your god or God remain silent right now?
With kind regards, W.R.

I replied that in many blogs attention has been paid to Mother Nature's response to irresponsible mankind and also to viral and bacterial epidemics.
But I asked the writer of this mail whether I could use this (anonymized) mail in a new blog. That was all right with W.R.
This mail set me thinking. So herewith.

I went through all the blogs and then I specially made two labels (tabs) that give easier access to those blogs. These are "Mother Nature responds to inexcusable behaviour" (24 blogs) and "Viral and bacterial epidemics" (6 blogs). They can be found on the website version of the blogs at Labels, which is a kind of table of contents for the blogspot. But there is another thing why I did not especially hurry up in this whole crisis. I had asked My God some years ago why no more attention was paid to crisis and threats and disasters, and I got an answer to that.


So I just left it like this. Still, I want to thank W.R. It is a wake up call that has forced me to make the blogspot more accessible to the blogs that deal with the great crisis in our experience. Top!
Would You like to comment on this?

My good son, who want to hear let them hear and who want to see, let them see. There are indeed many blogs that cover this topic. The Corona crisis fits in perfectly with this, in that sense your comment is quite sufficient. I do propose to start a series of blogs about the moral and practical consequences of such an epidemic but in a while. Of course We like to comfort and there is now confusion and fear. Although every person now also sees what a special and inspiring things are happening among men, something that the spiritual world was expecting with great confidence.
W.R. is blessed for the mail.

My blessings to you all

Enjoying beauty is a form of truth, is living in truth (Do You want to talk to me, I asked God? 2)



I had once an extensive conversation with God and this was one of the topics.
 


You enjoy the beauty of the world, of nature, of beautiful things, of antiques, of colours, of music. And luckily many people do, but not all.
Let us take a more detailed look at beauty, My Son, for We are going to discuss a great truth that many believers, especially those who do not have an eye for the beauty of life, will not like.

My statement is that someone who intensely enjoys beauty lives in truth just as much as someone who believes intensely.
This is challenging. So people who believe nothing but enjoy the beauty in life are no less worthy than people who believe in God and the spiritual world but who have no eye for the beauty on earth.

Are believing in God and having eye for beauty than equal quantities, equally important, aren’t they inferior to each other? That's right. In the spiritual world, God has just as much a place for someone who intensely enjoyed beauty such as an artist, a musician or an interior designer even though they were notorious atheists as It has for a pastor, an iman or a priest, even though they were by no means aesthetes.

For enjoying and having an eye for beauty is enjoying a very important characteristic of God, namely the creation of beauty. So enjoying beauty is enjoying a truth from God. Enjoying beauty is therefore living in truth, something believers do claim.
Meanwhile, those who do not believe anything and have no eye for beauty are equally blessed and equally welcome in the spiritual world. Because maybe they also live in truth, because they are capable of loving, for example?

My blessings to you all
