Trust In a Sovereign God

Trust In a Sovereign God

How do you respond when tragedy strikes your family? At various points in our lives we will likely face difficult experiences that leave us with thorny questions, questions that remain unanswered.

Why would God seemingly take a good young person to heaven and leave an evil old person here?

While Scripture rarely provides simple answers to such questions, it does invite us to trust the God who in the midst of adversity promises to be our Great Shepherd, gathering us in His arms and carrying us close to His heart (40:11). When the Bible asserts that God is in control, it invites us to believe that evil does not have the last word. A loving, sovereign God can be trusted to overwhelm present evils. In our own situation, a hint of how God is using adversity to mold our character, as we think about this, “I guess you don’t need limitations to serve God.”

The Scriptures never promise that Christians will be kept from adversity. But God does promise to provide grace to face the challenges and to use trials to make us more like Jesus Christ. So with this it still bothers me "WHY" and as I have said to some people "God has the plan" so all I can do do is as I have so well learned over the last 4 years it "Let It Go and Pray" then pray some more!
