God in 2010

       God, the almighty being that is responsible for creating all of us and the world we live in. Religion advises that we pray and thank God whenever we have the chance. Today, even people who claim to be religious lack the effort to do this. What has God turned into?
      When people are stuck in bad situations or when something unfortunate occurs in their life, what do they do? Most of us will try to blame someone or something. One of the first options people would turn to would be God. They have a good reason for doing so. God is the divine being that created us all, is he not? Should he not be there to guide and protect us?
      We turn to Him for refuge and we put all your faith into him when we are in need. But what do people do when in times of success? Do we still turn to God and give him all our thanks for leading us to success? Most likely not. We will thank the ones that are close to us and we believe that all that success comes from our own abilities and not from an almighty being that is guiding us. Very little of our thanks actually goes to God.
      The presence of God today is fading. We use him as an excuse and a reason in dire times, but we discard him in prosperous time. There are still many people out there who's faith is unfaltering, but how long will that last? Will it still be this way for the next generations to come?

  2. Yeah, a lot of people only turn to God when they have no other option left. If I was God, that sure would make me feel bad...
