James 1:17
“Everything good comes from God. Every perfect gift is from him. These good gifts come down from the Father who made all the lights in the sky. But God never changes like the shadows from those lights. He is always the same.” (ERV)
“Whatever is good and perfect comes to us from God, the Creator of all light, and He shines forever without change or shadow.” (TLB)
I really liked this "Why Does a Good God Let Bad Things Happen?" with James 1:17 - from Joyce Meyer's: Promises for Your Everyday Life Daily Devotional" so I'm sharing it today.🙂
“When we experience terrible tragedy, being angry with God is quite common. People frequently ask, "If God is good, all-powerful, and full of love for us, why didn't He stop the thing that caused the pain?"
This is where Satan seeks to build a wall between God and the hurting person. He seizes the opportunity to say, "God isn't good, and He can't be trusted." However, we know according to the Word of God, the truth is not in Satan, he is a liar and the father of lies.
Read James 1:17. Everything good comes from God. God is good, and He cannot be anything else. Furthermore, He isn't one way one time and another way another time. He doesn't change. He is good, and that's the way He is.
It's obvious that God doesn't always stop tragedy, and we honestly don't always know why bad things happen. First Corinthians 13:12 says, "...Now I know in part (imperfectly)...." We have to remember that faith will always require us to accept unanswered questions, and we must come to the place where we're satisfied to know the One who knows and place our trust in Him.
Prayer Starter: God, I may not always understand why bad things happen, but I know that You are good. When I don't understand why, I will find my comfort in You.”

One thing God will NEVER do is tempt you, trick you or give you an opportunity to sin! Know that Sin does not come from God but it comes from the devil and your own desires of your flesh. Continue to focus on the Spirit of God and the things that are of God to know the difference. #GodMommyWife#God#Mommy#Wife#Godsspirit#Resittemptation#EverythinggoodcomesfromGod#Godnevertempts#womenempoweringwomen#womenencouragement#womenencouragingwomen
