choice to follow Him or ‘bad’ things happen. Others say ‘bad’ happens because we live in a fallen world. Both of those views have truth to them, yet I wonder if the problem isn’t that God allows ‘bad’ things to happen to ‘good’ people, but we have twisted view of ourselves and a false one of God. I present the idea that we are not ‘good’ people and therefore, ‘bad’ things will be part of our life experience.
