In my freshman year, I got bullied. I have a disability. During that time I became afraid, anxious, depressed and angry with God because of why he let it happen. (Raise your hand if you have blamed God for bad things in your life, thanks put your hand down). I didn’t understand why he let it happen. Why did he let me be depressed, angry, and anxious? But when the pandemic happened (when I got bullied it was in 2019 ) we quarantined and everything got bad for everyone. (But from my perspective this was a time where we would find God again).

After much reading the bible, and reading books of Isaiah, and Ezekiel, I am highly convinced that GOD is not happy with punishing people.
