I liked the poem and the concept... I don't know if you've ever heard that song, it's country, the chorus is "But I wasn't there the day you hung the stars in the sky" It's basically the same concept, he was wondering why all this stuff could happen but then he realizes that he isn't supposed to be doubting the Lord. It's not that He thinks anyone should be punished, or that he gives these things out as punishment. I think it's like they explained it in that movie with the stripper angel it only carries you so far and then you make certain decisions, just as other people choose to do as well. I think God puts certain forks in your road but essentially it's up to you to take the right one. It's like saying God forces every motion and action we take, that he's got every single second mapped out in our lives and I disagree with that. Asking how he could let something happen could be another thing, but he wasn't the driving force behind that action that another person chose. Maybe that could be something that turns her life around... I don't know but I do know that we should thank god for the things that he has given us, pray for the guidance to make the right decisions to recieve the things we want, and pray for forgiveness for the sins we've commited. My veiws, sorry if you dfon't agree peace
