Did you know that the devil works for Jesus? Real quick, even though evil happens, even though evil is real, nothing happens without God knowing it. So there's absolutely nothing that is out of God's control. So whatever happened, God allows it. Now, this could make you feel uncomfortable because it's a lot of evil in the world. But one thing that I'm learning, the more that I get into reading the Bible and I see how all these things are happening, but God knew, is that God allows things, he causes other things, but no matter what, it all works for his glory. You can see this in Job, amazing book, which I personally think is great to read when you think about just suffering and why God allows it and how he's still good. I don't think that there's ever really a good answer for suffering of why. But I think it's better to just say, what hope can I have in this suffering? And so instead of whatever you're going through, don't just think about the thing. We all are going to go through things inevitably. There's literally no part of life that comes without suffering. I doubt that you'll find one person's story in their life that's without suffering, but because of God, there's purpose in it and there's good in it and that it can always be redeemed for something. So just like there's a scripture in the Bible that says that you intended it for evil, but God meant it for good. And so just think about suffering that way as you're going through the stuff. Honestly, just whatever. Go to God. You can tell him how you feel and it's going to be okay. Just don't give up on him because he will not give up on you.

That is a question a lot of people have, and that's so true, like, God is always in control. God is all sovereign, like, He knows the story. He knows it from beginning, middle to end. He knows everything that's going to happen in your life before you were even thought of. Like, so, yeah, good point, good point. And the fact that He's always in control and He's all sovereign should bring us comfort.

And the fact that God is all-sovereign and all-knowing should bring us comfort because we know in the end, we are going to be okay. And we don't have anything to worry about. And we do have tests and trials, but we're going to overcome them with the help of God.
