Amen! Nothing happened to cause me to stop drinking, but it just became something that didn't interest or appeal to me anymore. I don't see anything wrong with drinking alcohol in moderation. I just don't like the feeling of even 1 or 2 beers, and the thought doesn't even occur to me to drink it anymore.
Ditto for me Mike.Certainly.
This caught my eye. I'm surprised to see you say this. I know you don't believe in a distant God. I think about Job as an extreme example of allowing suffering, but more importantly His message to him later in the book when He's heard enough, starting with Job 38:1-3. I love His whole rant.
Matthew 10:29-31 seems to state that He allows pain & suffering. I agree with everything in your post, but this line had me puzzled. Hope you are well.
