Walking your own path can be lonely – that’s what I keep realizing
It’s 12 : 15 PM on day 1620 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray, read Jeremiah 37, publish my Disability of the Day feature, promote my Educate Generations campaign – Catherine Cook who has donated five times before donated $25 today (thank you SO MUCH Catherine I don’t know what I did to deserve such generosity from you and others must be all of mommy’s prayers (Note to self: thank mom for every prayer that she has ever prayed for me) – which brings my total raised to $1 925 only $575 more to raise to reach goal – learn one new thing – An elephant’s trunk has up to 150,000 muscles – feed myself a peanut butter sandwich and a pear for breakfast, stretch my hamstrings and continue promoting the campaign – $1 925 raised so far SO GRATEFUL 
Yesterday I started reading The Diary of A Young Girl: The Definitive Edition by Anne Frank and I could relate to the loneliness that Anne felt I, like Anne, have lots of people in my life and some I would even classify as friends but there’s nobody I feel like I can tell everything to without fear of being judged most people I meet laugh off my bleeding heart ways when I start talking about human rights so you can imagine why I don’t allow myself to be venerable enough to spill my guts to them I guess loneliness is the price I have to pay for walking my own path.
What do you make of Jeremiah 37? God has set his heart against Jerusalem at that moment. He uses other nations to punish His chosen people. God brings terror, death and destruction upon His stubborn people. Nor do they repent.
As for your path, you should ask if it is of your making or the making of the Lord. You do not walk alone if you walk with God. The world, however, is concerned with themselves, their pleasure and the ways of their own heart. Human rights are mostly interesting to those who are oppressed and whose rights are deprived. However, as we see in Jeremiah 37, such deprivations could be the consequence of their iniquity and God’s own judgment against them.
or it could just be the circumstances that they are born into not everyone who is suffering has done wrong think of little children what sin have they committed that they should suffer so horribly.
Job, who was righteous and tested, says to God’s face that he cannot understand God’s ways and that they are “too wonderful”.
As we read the Bible, we discover that children are not spared from God’s wrath and judgment. They suffer the consequences of the sins of their fathers – in a manner of speaking. Pharoah’s stubborn heart, for example, brings the terrifying death of the Egyptian children. The children of Noah’s time did not escape the flood. Nor the children of Sodom and Gomorah – they did not escape the fire of heaven. Also, consider that the children of Adam and Eve and all their descendants remain cursed for the sin of Adam and Eve. Even some of the people who are healed-forgiven by Jesus or released from the bondage of demons by him – had their afflictions from birth. Finally, Revelations describes the terrors that will pour forth from God’s wrath and, sadly, many billions will be killed. This includes children and infants.
The Bible teaches us that we are all guilty and worthy of His punishment for the sins of our ancestors, our parents, our political leaders, etc. Few are righteous in the eyes of God – except for those made righteous by the death of Jesus on the cross and, among them, only those who love Jesus and in whom Jesus lives.
It is tempting to judge God when we look at things like this. But I think we lack a bigger picture – a picture in which we cannot see His gentleness in matters which may only look horrible when seen from our limited viewpoint.
