Let's take the most common example: money.

1. God gives you money
-- A drug dealer crosses you, he offers you drugs, he insists and you buy. Cause u just want to get rid of him. Then you become an addict for the rest of your life.

2. God does not give you money
-- A drug dealer crosses you, but there is no way you buy. Other times the dealer knows you are poor and leaves you be.

If you read, post more examples (besides money).

diarrhea

god give you diarrhea
-you get caught in traffic and turn the inside of your car brown

god does not give you diarrhea
-your car stays clean

is that how it works?

Open mind.

God gives you open mind
- You have to think for yourself and you are basically against (almost) the rest of the world because everyone else is caught in their own primitive, limited thought patterns and view of the world and there's conflict all life long

God gives you no open mind
- Life with whatever you believe in, never question anything of substance and never have any discomfort in your life.

I guess that's how it works.

Let me try again

God gives you money
- you come across a supermarcet, want to buy food for your kids and you can do so

God gives you no money
- You come across a supermarcet, want to buy food but are not able to do so. You and your family starve almost (or even) to death

Fun game. Shows how there is sense in everything god gives (or refuses to give). It's all a quest you have to master. Every obstacle is a chance to learn.

Thanks for this thread and insight.

(Btw, by choosing "money" for the "catalyst/trigger" of a drug-addiction is so far off reality. Just sayin')

Yea

You are going to make an investment; You pray to the Lord for successful investment.

The terms of the agreement was too harsh for you and the investment didn't happen.

Maybe the investment was going to be a total failure and the Lord saved you from a financial disaster.

lol somebody posted after a couple of months

but you sure got it right, pal

Some of what we call his "unanswered prayers" can often turn out to be for the better of us as an individual.
