James 1:2-4
You may remember the 1981 bestseller, "When Bad Things Happen to Good People" – but this title is problematic for two reasons. First, it assumes that there is such a thing as good people who DESERVE a pleasurable, pain-free life. Second, it implies that "bad things" do not have a divine purpose behind them that is ultimately beneficial, that God works in and through for His good purposes.
