God is not the one who decides when you graduate, marry, give birth, become rich or get cured from an ailment – Nigerian Catholic priest says

A Germany based Nigerian Catholic priest, Rev. Fr. Angelo Chidi Unegbu, has said that God does not decide when one graduates, marries, gives birth, becomes rich or get cured from an ailment.

The priest, who stated this in a Facebook post on Friday, August 29, said his intention is not to diminish the power of God but to instead make people realize that God has given everything the resources, abilities, freedom to make choices and achieve their dreams.

“When I tell you that God is not the one who decides when you graduate, marry, give birth, become rich, get a promotion in a job, win elections, get cured from an ailment, etc., I do not say so to diminish the power of the creator or to destroy your faith in God,” he wrote.

“Not at all. I do so to introduce you to the love of God, who has given you everything you need to succeed in your endeavours even before you were born. I am talking of a God who created you as a co-creator and who gives you the freedom to make choices and to help in making the world a better place.

“When we fail to discover the resources and abilities he has given us in making our world a better place and in achieving our good dreams, we should have ourselves to blame, not him.”
