Sometimes people want to blame God because life did not go the way they thought it should. It's the common struggle of, "if God is good, why did He allow this into my life?" But we don't often ask the opposite question. Why did something bad NOT happen to me in this cursed, fallen world?" Life is a gift. Even and especially when it is hard. Life's hardness does not determine life's goodness or God's.
