I always get a kick out of folks that say things like “How can God let this happen?”

As if God’s purpose is to serve them - to make them comfortable.

People serve God, not the other way around. Life and strife go hand in hand. It’s up to us to deal with it as best we can.

Luther had a little saying.

“Jesus got a crown of thorns, yet people want a bed of roses”.

We are going through some rather hard things right now in my house. God is the only reason I haven’t crashed out.
