Isn't it times of desperation that you cling to your God? I have been desperate but I've clung to my God...
Yes Lisa you're correct no one is disputing that but for the billionth time, understand that people in some countries have absolutely nothing!
Maybe I'll give you an example
So my sister in law lives in a village in Somalia where the nearest water source is an hours walk. Her husband is ill, can't walk, and she's 8 months pregnant with 6 kids. Now thankfully she lives in a God fearing country and her neighbours who are equally poor share bread and meat and rice amongst them.
FOr the past 2 years there's been an unimaginable famine and all livestock have been dropping dead. People there now have nothing including my heavily pregnant sister in law. They eat boiled rice and food ration satchets. in those 2 years of hardship they had to find and take whatever was left in their village even though it wasn't theirs. So in a sense they sinned as they stole from their neighbours. But what other choice did they have? Do you not even on a human level acknowledge their desperation? Don't spew bible quotes respond on a human level, what would you actually do in that situation? Starve to death to avoid sin? Or take what was available?
Thankfully there's been rain in the past month so things are looking up. God tested their patience and they were patient, then he granted the heavens to pour on them so they can start growing produce again
