Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People

Why do bad things happen to good people? Hmmm, who hasn't heard that question bantered around while out and about rubbing shoulders with the world? Many people have asked it themselves. A young seminary student in our church (love seminary students--they thing about evverrrythiing-deeply) did a pretty good job tackling that question about a month ago in a Thursday evening service at our church.

About Me

I'm a wife, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend. I live in Minnesota with my husband, Greg. I exist to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and make Him known in all that I do. This blog is one of my attempts to do just that. I believe that there is no such thing in life as mundane moments. God uses them all for His glory and for His purposes. I'll attempt to demonstrate that with this blog through my various musings about living an ordinary life while serving an extraordinary God.

In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace, which He lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight making known to us the mystery of His will, according to His purpose, which He set forth in Christ as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in Him, things in heaven and things on earth.

--Ephesians 1:7-10

In the infinite wisdom of the Lord of all the earth, each event falls with exact precision into its proper place in the unfolding of His divine plan. Nothing, however small, however strange, occurs without His ordering, or without its particular fitness for its place in the working out of His purpose; and the end of all shall be the manifestation of His glory, and the accumulation of His praise.

--Benjamin Warfield
