Happy New Year!

It's 2008 and I am expecting a lot more from you.

Can I ask you a question? I have watched the news and I have seen many tragedies throughout the world. Wars in various countries. Genocide- wiping out millions of lives of people who are already struggling, why?

Why are people not safe in your place of worship? A place where people gather to pray and seek your guidance - why is not protected by you? You are the ultimate source of all. You are in complete control and we are helpless. We are limited in our ability to handle certain things and you know this.........

Is fair to say that if we have faith the size of a mustard seed that we can move mountains? Can we really? I'm sure that even the most depressed and destitute have hope and faith that things will get better, they even pray. So why?

Why? Why?
