My friend today message me on Messenger about his son who is asking a very difficult question. She wants me to answer it for her because she is having a hard time thinking of a good reason to answer her son.
The question is, Why God allows us to live only at the end we all gonna die?
Me too, I am having a lot of thought about this.
Because even me, I am afraid to die. I want to live a little longer.
Any thoughts on this?

Because every one of has got a purpose with which we have been created and we need to fulfill it while we live. He creates every thing with a reason and a purpose! We need to identify our role and act accordingly like other animals, birds, plants and trees are doing! Thanks dear friend!

We are not to just live only, going through each day in a mindless way. We all have a purpose God has for us, and we are to fulfill that purpose with the best we can offer, both to the person we are doing it for and to God.
1 Corinthians 10:31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. (KJV)
Do you want to live a meaningful life, give it over to God and watch him give and fulfill a purpose in you.

Hmm... the question is why God allows us to live, only to die in the end.
That is very difficult to answer. Because if I'm being very honest, I do not know how God thinks. As they say... mysterious ways. It is an impossible question to answer unless I can get a one-on-one interview with The Big Guy himself. :P
Short of that, I am just a human. All I can do is hope I can figure out what to do while I'm here, and hope that either I am at least a help to others, or I am not that big of a burden to others.

I think that's ok for you to give your point of view on that, why not?

@JustBhem I can understand that, but some answers I'm afraid we can't avoid my friend.

@saritflor
I agree. Maybe he needs some time to discover it himself someday.

I guess that's just the way it is. Everything has to end.

God gave us our lives and He created us in Hius image and likeness. Sickness doesn't come from God, There is no sickness in Heaven so it's not Him who gave your sickness. The enemy is here to steal, kill and destroy. but God came to give you life and life abundantly. He said if you ask. believe that you have it and it will be given to you. Your life is precious to God and therefore He will never take that away from you because you are precious in His eyes. Then it means it's your choice because you were given the free will to believe or not. Have faith in God and never think that He gave the sickness to you.
