Habakkuk's 1:1-4; Complaint in our life

Why does God allow evil to triumph and injustice prevails in this world. At the time during the Habakkuk ministry, he prophesied Jerusalem will be fallen to Babylon. Yet Babylonians are a greater evil, so why did God allow this to happen, to allow evil people triumph and goes unpunished. In the world where I belong, it is the evolution thought - the survival for fittest - that dominant and rules. Because of the competition between man, and because for the basic instinct to survive, violence, injustice and wicked things prevail.

We christian are the one who witness our Lord in our world. Yet many times when we stand firm to our faith and to be nice to others, we suffer. God seems didn't answer our prayer to change our situation and plight. We saw many injustice happen in our working place. In this world, we are sadden sad to see the truth was being twisted and nowadays many issue are fallen into a grey area. Injustice prevails and evil triumph. We want to change it, but we are powerless.

Maybe it is this background that Habakkuk's complain to God, and maybe also this is the reason we doubt His and lose our faith in Him.

Thanks God that He tolerate us to doubt Him and to question Him. He allow us to speak to Him face to face to grumble God has His planning and purposes. He allow us to live in the world of realities so that we can grow to be mature. Many times I have to admit that I don't understand His plan and I don't have an answer. Yet God is the Lord of all mankind, He judged. It is this heavenly hope and promise that one day we will saw Him face to face, and it is the realisation that He is in control, that allow us to have the courage to move on to follow Him in this world.

My prayer:
Our Father in heaven. Hallowed be your name. May your kingdom come. May your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Father, even though sometimes we don't understand, help us not to lose heart, and help us to fix our eyes on you, and have the faith and courage to follow you.
