Why doesn't?

It had been a while since I (or anyone else =_=") posted.. And probably this should be closed anyway since awty exists only in our hearts now =p Still.. Whatever la =p

People always ask the question - why doesn't God (do so and so). Like, why did God make Adam knowing that he would fall? And why does God allow bad things to happen? And why He doesn't make Himself more obviously known. And why does He want us to pray when He already knows what we want and need better than ourselves...

But don't you think these are small mysteries compared to other instances? If you are the Son of God, why don't you come down from the cross? If you can save others why don't you save yourself? If you are Sinless and blameless why are you made Sin? If you need but to call and legions of angels will come why do you not even allow a sword to be drawn?

These questions remain even when they are answered. Yet perhaps we should be glad God does things as He does, not as we do. If it were that all our prayers were answered, how disastrous that would be...
