 If you can give God all the credit, does that not also mean you can blame God? It's confusing to me how you're supposed to give him all the credit for all the good things but then also not blame him for any of the bad. The word blame means to find fault with. When you blame God, you go further than just acknowledging his sovereignty. Blaming God implies that he somehow made a mistake or that there is sin within him. When you blame God, you make yourself the judge. But you have no right to pass judgment on the God that created you. You are his creation, he is not yours. Woe to those who curl with their maker, those who are nothing but potchards among the potchards on the ground. Does Clay say to the potter, what are you making? Does your work say the potter has no hands? Woe to the one who says to a father, what have you begotten? Or to a mother, what have you brought to birth?
