Why?

Yesterday I heard 2 significant news. One was that somebody is having a baby and the other was a little boy has been diagnosed with leukemia. Although, the news of the miracle of a child being born excited me, but the news of a child with cancer troubled me and made me ponder about things of which I do not have control of. I started to ask the infamous question "Why?" Why should the little boy suffer? His parents are good people. Why Why Why? I did scientifically and psyhologically explain it in my heart, but somehow the answers seemed incomplete.

But I know the Bible says "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts."

So I take solace in the fact that the Almighty one is in control!
