Too Big for Your Britches?

1 Samuel 3:1-5

[1] The boy Samuel ministered before the LORD under Eli. In those days the word of the LORD was rare; there were not many visions.

[2] One night Eli, whose eyes were becoming so weak that he could barely see, was lying down in his usual place.

[3] The lamp of God had not yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was.

[4] Then the LORD called Samuel. Samuel answered, "Here I am."

Still think God "chooses" everybody, and only those who "choose" God accept?

Well, if so, don't you think it's a bit unfair that a few get "chosen" by some spectacular expression from God Himself, and most don't?

I mean wouldn't anybody choose Him if He called out to them as a child, or knocked them off a horse?

Is God unfair? Or maybe, He is fair, and still actually chooses those who are His, out of all the people born in the world...like its written.

Maybe, because He knows the totality of why He made this world, with all its problems, that He has a good, no... fantastic, reason for His choices?

Yes, God can be good and still create a world with evil.

He never lost control.

He doesn't lose.

He doesn't fail.

He doesn't make mistakes.

You cannot use time-based puny human logic, and your limited understanding of what is good and evil, to judge a being as vast as eternity.

It just isn't wise.
