Ok, as if I would get out of this, the Lord leads , I will answer your probing question , KAYm.

God put me here because He knew I liked green, and, what do you know, I live in 'The Evergreen State.'
God put me here, where I live now which is amongst homeless all around-the-clock me, because He knew I would quietly keep watch and nourish their wants for what they really need...someone who constantly talks about the Lord leading their life.
God put me here to do the work I do because He knew I could reach others with quick words and a gentle smile, not to mention, a cute sunshine brown doggy with the cutest little mug you will ever see who gets oodles of compliments about her colors, her face markings, her speed, etc, which I constantly can tell others y of how I got Piddy Witkinstein.
Ok, enough, I tell ya, ENOUGH, LOL.

WHY do people have a hard time accepting where God has them in life?

Because God didn't allow them to see the truth. "The God of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God." (2 Corinthians 4:4)
Why do we behave so bad when our saviour is so perfect?
I know it's the human nature, but we're aware of the fact that we're not doing something acceptable for God and we keep making the same mistake. And sometimes we don't even feel guilty about it. I hope I'm not the only one...

Good, but it could always be better.
I also want to take a moment to address sah's question.
You're not the only one, and there are many of reasons.
Paul explained it as the law of sin and death at work in his life. Whatever you want to call it, there is a 'fallen', fleshly, worldly, sinful nature at work in us. God is also at work in us. We, however, get to choose which side to listen to and act on.
Naturally, we have a strong inclination to selfish things. Most of the time, selfishness leads to sin. The Bible tells us we're never tempted more than we can bear, and that God always provides a way out. The thing is, we have to be focusing on Him. Just like Peter, when we take our eyes off Him, we start to sink.
Now for my question to really bug your minds like it has mine.
Through Biblical study of both the Canon and Apographa, I believe that angels also have free will, and that they were created in the presence of God. (living in heaven)
So, how is it, that Satan, who was once one of God's three archangels, living in His presence all the time, could sin and choose something other than God and God's purpose?

I was fairly astounded by your answer, Asif, to my above Q. Yes, exactly , we are confounded, so to speak by our FLESH! We must choose which máster we want to serve, our fleshly desires or our Godly directions.
Sah, what you said too, and, Yes, for ALL have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God (ROM. 8:28) so, you, milady, are not alone in that thought of wanting to do right, knowingvwhat is right and, sigh, then doing wrong . Not easy, and,ver will ALL fail trying to do it but we must die to.self (flesh) by repenting of our sins and following God daily and being on a heart that when we do screw up we line right up to God again. Die, live, die, live, die, live, but alwayS become alive at the end of the day. I am not saying be hypocrite either, that is different. If you have a PERSONAL relationship with Jesus, your dying to self will become more and more easy but NEVER over because God ways we are a work in progress all through our life.
Ok, my A to your Q now, Asif...
Satan fell from what commonly has fallen man, showing how much power there is in this throughout the aves of all time , from creation of man and woman to now....
What is it that Satan went after lustily despite having it made in the shade as God's top ángel?
Power. Satan wanted to be more powerful than God. Great question, Asif. Profound thouught. I love the book of Revelations, so much wildly prophe sying stuff in there that speaks now that we are indeed in the end times . Amazing . Just like old testament predicting a Saviour would come to.save the world vía prophet, Isaiah. Asif, I hope you consider seminary, the Lord leads, but you carry extremely good knowledge in that noggin of yours

What is your BEST attribute that you can offer others, and, while we are at it, name your worst , too please?
