The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
When times are good, be happy. But when times are bad, consider this: God has made the one time as well as the other so that mortals cannot predict their future.
Ecclesiastes 7:14 GW
Human nature tells us to be thankful when we are happy and to find someone to blame when we are not. God is often the one who gets the blame for our unhappiness. After all, he is in control of everything, so why do bad things happen?
