Why do bad things happen to good people?That infamous question.You know, the one that comes up when something unfortunate happens to you or someone close to you. Well the answer is,there are no 'good people.' Even a serial killer considers himself good at heart. According to Proverbs 21:2- 'Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the hearts.' Even Jesus further proves my said point in Mark 10:18- 'Why do you call me good? No one is good, but One,that is God.'
I know it is difficult to see yourself as 'not good', but knowing this fact allows you to open yourself to one who really is. Jehovah God, he, and only he, is good. Now I suppose the cousin question to the first question may instantly come to mind...If God is good, why all the evil in the world?
Perhaps the evil in the world is due to the fact that we(human beings) are inherently evil, we use our free will to deny God and do evil. We war against each other, we kill, we envy, the list goes on... Instead of blaming God for the all the ills in the world, turn to him;let him change you;let him give you a new heart, a re-birth if you may. ;-)
