Thesis- The Suffering Servant

After my operation to remove my Gall Bladder I have decided on my subject for my Thesis, the Suffering Servant is one of the fundermental questions we ask God, if you love us so much why is there so much suffering in the world?
A good topic don't you think, not that I except popular approval but I find the subject interesting and not morbid, as St Paul say's the suffering in this world is nothing compared with the glory that is to be revealed in us. This principal that God not only allows suffering but sees it as a necessary method of waking us up! Quite often we go about our lives with the attitude of corperal satisfaction relates to our happiness, in affect the evangelical counsel are the paths to happiness and salvation. The key to this is faith and reason, as we grow in life we not learn important matters in our history but have to relate our own personal lives to the world and most importantly to God, the creator of heaven and earth. I come from God, I belong to God, I will return to God.
