Black people living in America today should be thankful for slavery. Slavery was fantastic for them, because without it, most likely, they would have been born in Africa, possibly growing up in a dirt hut, not even owning any shoes, not having any running water in their house, not having any of the incredible modern conveniences that we all take for granted in America today.

I mean, they don’t even have to work here. They can just get on welfare. Section 8 housing. Have as many kids as they want to, that are paid for by US taxpayers who actually work.

Now, of course, slavery was terrible. Case in point: it resulted in Joy Reid being born here.

In any case, even if God DID design high rates of fertilization failure, no it would not make him a murderer. As the giver of life, it is God's prerogative to take it back. That doesn't make him a murderer. It's murder for humans to take the lives of others because they didn't give life in the first place. It's like if you destroy my property that's criminal vandalism. But if I destroy my own property it's not a crime.

Anxiety is sin to be repented of,

Not a disease to be medicated.

We are all prone to different sins.
Some of us struggle with pride, anger, or wrath, other struggle with lust or gluttony.

Anxiety is no different.

[…]

Modern Christians must not get sucked into the trap of medicalizing our sin.

Meds may address some behavioral issues (bad fruit) but they cannot address the bad root.

Only repentance and faith can do that.

We serve a God who is incredibly gracious and immeasurably, merciful to us.

He is inviting each of us to cast our worries upon him.

He would not command us not to worry if it were impossible to actually obey.
