As we go through trials in life, we are often taught that God puts these bad things in our lives in order to teach us a lesson. When sickness, hardship or bad  circumstances arise, we are told to embrace it so that God can work through us. WHAT a LIE! God is not the author of bad things in our lives. He will redeem everything, but he does NOT cause these things. Know your enemy and start overcoming hardship. CourtneySchieber.com
