I've been asked many times by Christians why God allows bad things to happen to good people. I can sense their struggle as they try to reconcile why God does not heal or deliver those who love Him. Is there an answer, a good answer? Sometimes we find it hard to discern any purpose for the pain. We can accept when He gives, can we not accept when He takes away? He calls us to trust Him when we don't understand what He is up to. Trust He is in control and knows what He is doing. Trust He is with us as we go through the storm. Trust He will not let us go. Trust that He is good and He loves us, even when the circumstances do not seem to confirm that.
Perhaps there is just no good answer on this side of heaven. I don't know if the answers would still matter when we get to the other side.
Read the amazing story behind the song 'Praise You in This Storm' by Casting Crowns here.
