Why do bad people thrive and good people suffer? It’s not always true, but when it does, we wonder. We can reason life happens randomly, which it does. Maybe these bad people have better health genetically. Or some bad people are craftier in their decisions or at making money than good people. (By good, I mean followers of Christ as opposed to those who serve only themselves.) This I know, when I’m blessed with good, whatever it is, that good always comes with peace and joy attached. From what I can tell, that’s not the case for all. And, when I suffer, I know it’s not in vain. Our Savior knows personally what we’re going through, whether physical or mental, and redeems even our suffering.
Why, Lord?
