God has planned out all our days. That includes both our good days, and our bad days. Looking at Solomon's examination of life, Pastor Ed helps us understand why bad things happen to good people. He points out that lives without trials, tend to create people who do not believe they need help. It can also create people who can't empathize with those who are struggling. Most importantly, troubles in life create a dependency on God. Knowing you need God is the greatest gift.
