God's Will

The quickest way to closure is God’s Will. Fighting tooth and claw with every legal and medical weapon available, and seeing death still close its withered hand, the person says, “It is God’s will.” Inconsistency is better than a lifetime of bitterness. It’s better to say, “I was trying for the wrong thing, and now I’ll try something different” than to say, “Nothing ever works out for me, I failed, I’m unsuccessful, I’m a failure.” Especially when it comes to death, which is so damn final, and total, you can’t blame yourself, you can’t keep worrying about it, you just have to move on. God’s will is the road ahead. Clearly, obviously, everything must be God’s will that happens, because God is God, and his will is inexorably done. Do you think anything has ever happened that was not God’s will? Do you think God ever let one slide? So, if you fought tooth and claw to prevent someone dying and they died anyway, then the fighting is God’s will and the dying is also God’s will. God made you fight, and God made you lose. You probably became a better person or something. You probably learned a good lesson. Go forth and do more things that are God’s will. If you ever achieve a level of frustration that so exasperates you that you cannot, at the end of a bitter, miserable failure say, “It is God’s will,” if you cannot push those words from your mouth and salve the horror of your losing, losing, losing, then that is God’s will also, and you’ll also learn a lesson from that. God has everything all planned out and it’s your job to carry on and learn lessons and follow the path that God has laid out all the way down to your death. Which is God’s will.
