"God doesn't love me, if he loved me, he wouldn't of let this happen."
"God I thought you were going to protect me from bad things..."
"WHY DID YOU LET THIS HAPPEN?! I HATE YOU."
Above are ALL things we at one point of our life, have said to God before. Doesn't it seem heartbreaking now that you physically see it? How do you think God must feel when we speak these horrible things? I have an idea of how he must feel.. I am sure His heart breaks.
God DOESN'T MAKE the bad events and tests happen in your life. Satan DOES! The Bible says he comes to kill steal and destroy. God WILL allow some bad things to happen in life. God NEVER promised that you would NEVER have bad things happen to you. Bad things happen because of SIN. I know you're asking yourself the same question I had a few times. "If God is such a LOVING God, then WHY does He allow bad things to happen?"
I have a very simple answer to that question. He ALLOWS for bad things to happen because He wants YOUR Faith to be tested. The Bible says, "When your faith is tested , your endurance will grow."
Endurance- The fact or power of enduring an unpleasant or difficult process or situation without giving way.
God wants YOU to TRUST HIM and HIM ALONE. Look at YOUR TESTS as a BLESSING in DISGUISE. Did you know that even when you're tested, God will work together even the BAD things for YOUR GOOD? God has your back!
Next time, THANK Him for the difficult test that He gave you. See, there IS really a BRIGHT side to everything.
Here's a few Bible verses that go with this :
John 10:10 "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and ]have it abundantly."
James 1:3 "Knowing the testing of your faith produces endurance."
Hebrews 12:11 " All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness."
