People in the world today are going through both bad and good things. The world as we know it today is both good and bad to a lot of people. You guys probably know pretty well what I'm talking about when I say bad stuff.

Have you guys been in bad relationships and/or really bad breakups? How about, a bad diagnosis with only a short time left before you leave this Earth. Yup, God allows some bad stuff to come into our lives. What? Did you guys think that turning to God would guarantee you to have only days of happiness? From the words of the great actor, Mike Myers, who played Wayne Campbell in the movie Wayne's World " Gya Yeah right!"

I sometimes hear from people this. "God is so good. He will never let anything bad happen to you! That sentence right there is half true. Yes, God is good. But, friends you Know, I know, he or she knows. Everyone who is living on this Earth knows that bad stuff does happen as much if not more than good stuff happening.

So my friends please do not think that if you choose to turn to God you will not have to go through the bad stuff anymore. Cuz that's  probably straight from the evil one. The only difference is if you turn your life over to God, he promises to be right alongside with you while you are going through that bad stuff.

We need to stop asking God questions why but just focus on giving praise to the Lord God. Trust him! The answer to the question why? It's because God loves you! As the song goes, Praise Him in the storm!

Psalm 46:10 

Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!

John16:33 

I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”

Isaiah 43:2

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.

1 Thessalonians 5:18

Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

Ephesians 5:20

Giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ my
