    My question is "why does God deliberatly make people blind and unable to hear?"

    I know it is all part of His plan, but how wonderful it would be if everyone just understood, and then could make an informed decision?

    Perhaps He wants us to SEEK Him? Another thing on my 101 things to ask God - list.

    lol


    God Bless

    Hi Mel,

    Thank you for reading my poem on the Sower.
    Christians are called to be the farmers, sowing the seed of the Word of God into the world. Of course the farmer wants to sow his seed only a good ground so that it will be fruitful. And there are often things he can do to prepare the soil. But this is not soley his responsibility. As he sows seed, I would imagine he would focus on what he perceives is good soil. But in the process, the seed also lands in places where the soil is not ideal.
    The ones along the path are those who fail to understand how the word applies to them. They don't take it to heart. Satan blinds their eyes to the truth, or puts mental stumbling blocks in their way. I'm always amazed when I hear someone from the intellectual elite say that Bible is difficult for them to understand. I think they must simply be reading it incorrectly. The Bible pretty much says what it means and means what it says. And thus people of all ages and generations have come to understand it. But there is a spiritual blindness that veils people's hearts. Speaking of the blindness of the Jews to the revelation of the Bible, Paul writes:

    "But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away. Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts. But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away." 2Cor 3:14-16

    God Bless you!!

    Lois,

    I thank God for you, well.

    Stuart,

    Someday?!? Grasp it, hold it, claim it today, brother, for it is so!

    Lee,

    I wonder about many things like that as well. Thanks for the levity. LOL!

    Latifa,

    Thank you for clarifying, although I was not really very worried about it.

    Go in God's Grace,

    Mel
