>>81917866The bad things that happen in the world are due to humanity's stewardship of it. Our role on earth is its caretaker. God said so in Genesis 1. Jesus commissions apostles to have even more roles in relation to God: Heal the sick, raise the dead, drive out demons. God is waiting for humanity to wake up to this role.
"Repenting" spiritually means turning it around and going back. It can be difficult to do that with the world dragging you in another direction, but we're not called to be hermits, we're called to be apostles. Complicated.
