Why good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people?
Watch this Video 1st before reading my article
This question is always on my mind, and I really can’t find any answer. The Bible said in one of the Beatitudes that “Blessed are the Poor in Spirit because God is always with them”, yet why is it that they are suffering?
I do not question God’s greatness, and I am very happy of what the things I have now. Normal human beings are not contented with their life because that’s our nature but still I am doing my best to live a happy life here in Earth.
Why do I talk like this? It is because I’ve got a call from my mom this morning and told me that our neighbor (my kumpare) died already. He is only 33 years old, and left 6 very young kids. His wife just gave birth 2 weeks ago to his (obviously) the youngest. I am really shocked when I heard about this news. He’s so young to die, and I don’t really know how will his wife will handle this trials in her life. She can not go to work because no one will be to left take care of her children, so what will happen to them if no one will support them financially? Her mother just passed away last year and that situation made an impact on her psychologically (she’s been advised to take a medication). And now this? I can’t imagine myself in her situation, I really don’t want that thing to happen to me. I don’t know how will I ever handle it. I am so depressed right now by just thinking of that situation. What will happen to her children?
The Doctor can’t trace what’s the disease that killed my kumpare. My mom said that when he arrived in the hospital he was chilling and had a very high body temperature. My mom also said that maybe he was sick for days before but did not tell her wife because he thinks that she might get worried and she had just gave birth. He even went to work even though he was sick. Oh my!
I really feel sorry for them. I don’t know what can I do to help them because my husband’s income is just enough for the three of us. Maybe God has a plan for them, I believe that He will not let trials come into someones life if she/he can’t overcome it. If my mother did it I know she can make it also.Β
Please join in me in praying for this family.
what ever happens in life we should always remember to live life to the fullest

Hi Melcole, good to see you here.
To help the family my mom is the one washing their dirt clothes. I really hope she can handle this trials in her life. Thank you for including them in your prayer.
BTW, I already added you in my blog roll.

Hi sis, just read your post and I feel sad for the family who lost their father. I felt sympathy to the mother who has to raise 6 children. Oh well, they experienced bad times but hey, God gave her another life from that new baby. I’ll pray these people. May they live in peace and move on and have strong faith in God’s mercy.
