Where was God

Published by cmadams

I am now a Mother that no one wants to be. I love my children more than life itself and my world got turned upside down when my 1st born son Billy, also known as Liam, was murdered by a stranger in a random act of violence. I have 3 remaining living, breathing, amazing children, 2 sons and 1 daughter, 3 living,breathing,amazing step-sons and each and every one is special,creative,and unique! I also have 3 beautiful grandchildren! 2 Grandsons ages 7and 8 and a precious 3 year old Granddaughter! My Grandson Logan, is Billy’s only child, he is now 8 years old. As my daughter says, he is the warm piece of Billy that we get to touch. I enjoy cherishing and taking care of my husband and my family, leading a healthy lifestyle in spirit, soul and body, clean eating, CrossFit, sunshine,rest, listening to music and singing along! I will never be who I was before this happened. I am dedicated to learn what I can, embrace the pain, and share my raw, wounded, healing heart that is daily changing due to this great tragedy. My hope is touch lives in many ways,no matter how big or small, in honor and in memory of my son, Billy.He will live on through my words, the words of his Mother and the hearts of his family💗 View all posts by cmadams

Where was God the night my son was murdered?

The same place he was when his son was murdered.

Did God allow or cause the murder to happen?

No. Francisco Franklin did. It was his God given choice and he chose death.

Death for my son, death to his own future, death to his circumstances and most likely death to his emotions.

I pray for Francisco. I chose to forgive him. I pray that he will be blessed in jail. Why? We are to bless those who curse us. Unforgiveness only hurts me. It’s like drinking poison and hoping it kills him. I’m not doing that!

The thief comes ONLY to steal, kill and destroy. John 10:10 We have an enemy who HATES us. Satan is responsible for the evil in this world. Not God.

It troubles me when I hear people blame God for the death of their child. God gives life and life abundantly through Jesus Christ.

It’s satan who comes to steal, kill and destroy. Why can’t we understand that?

I believe we blame God as a defense mechanism. He’s got big shoulders and he can handle it but it really isn’t his fault.

His word says that his divine power has given us all things pertaining to life and godliness through the knowledge of Him.

Do we know God? Really KNOW Him?

God created life. Man chose death. We are told that life and death, blessings and curses are set before us. We are told to choose life so that we and our descendants may live.
