hello my lotters, are you from the half that believes that every thing has a reason or what ever happens happens or a reason or god has plans for all of us or the other half that believes that everything is is just a coincidence or its just an accident and stuff. well we all belong to either one of these groups or the third group like in my case that is stuck somewhere in between. well what do you think? all of the happenings are just a coincidence or all of 'em are connected in some way or the other.

That is tough. You know OPerah says there is no luck or coincidence It is all a plan . Yet we do send out enery that brings things aback to us. You know the book The Secret.. well if you are sending energy for something and it happens you had to have some part in bringing it to you. So it was your plan and your "work " that brought it toyou. Buyt did God help?? That is yours to figues out nYour belief in God.

I do not believe in chance, good luck or bad luck, Murphy's Law, or astrology. Everything is under the authority of God. What some people do that is meant for evil, God uses for good. We were made for His pleasure. Gods ways and thoughts are not mans ways and thoughts, which is why people have a difficult time believing that He is in control of everything.

I am a believer of, "The Grand Design!" in my book there is no such thing as, Luck, Happenstance, Chance or Accident. There is a Grand Design for Mankind that is very visible for all to see, if they would only open their eyes to it. Some call it a Miracle, but it only appears to be Miraculous because it is the Grand Design! If "accidents" existed, they would not be accidents but certainties. If things just "happened," we would be held hostage by these happenings, It would just be a matter of throwing our hands up and stating, "I had no recourse it just happened!" In other words We would be completely divested of any control over our own lives, and the world would be completely Mad!

I believe God has a plan for ALL of us from the day we are conceived...Then things happen for a reason to be sure we are where we are supposed to be in order to meet God's plan!!!

I am stuck in between I'd rather say because in some situation I could say that God has a reason why some things happen, and it is really indeed true. Example, my relationships with my old friends aren't like before,some things badly happened. That time I did become independent and make friends to others which widened my horizon. On the other way, it may be coincidence.. it is maybe to end a one chapter of life and start a new one.Whatever it is, our actions define the future.

i believe that God has a predetermined plan for our lives and we ought to know what direction to take while living that life. but then we also are prone to a lot of wrong decisions that would have its consequences; these might be some detours we take while living but eventually i believe that God will not take us back to Him if we have not yet fulfilled the purpose for which we were born in the first place.

i believe everything happens for a reason,god has plans for us from the minute we're born,for every decission we make there are roads for us to follow and god has an ending for all of them,it's a bit like following a map,you can either take the straight route or the scenic route,either way you end up in the same place,and that is the place god has chosen for you,,hope that makes sense,it does in my head anyway

hi there.. yeah i do believe on your point of view. Everything happends for a reason. and all of us are connected in some of the aspect. I also beleive that before we are born God has already planned our life until we dued. Including our problems in life as well as trials. God planned it because he knows that we can handle it by ouself. He gave it for us to be strong and responsible, and thats one example of God that everything happends for a reason..
