Why does God allow people to suffer when they did something right, but let's the one lies prosper? We had an agreement with a family member that we would live in the family home until we die. We have spent a fortune remodeling the house, paid the taxes and insurance, she has never put any money in the place. Now that I am not able to work and putting most of my savings in the house, we were told to leave. We have papers drawn up because we trusted her. The one preaches to everyone constantly, only to learn she a greedy person and the truth is not in her.

So now I am trying to get an apartment in the projects before she has me evicted so I don't have to live in my car. Is this what being a Christian is, I am so lost thinking God loved me, l am trying to live right. Why would God allow this?

Just think of what Jesus had to go through to save us. Also, It is never said the Christian life will be easy but look on the good side, when you haveing troubles and you need help you will draw closer to God. For instance, I used to have a good and comfortable life and I started to lose and push away from God because I thought I did not need God, but now that I am down and having troubles, I have drawn night unto him. God will help you if you need him and if you believe he will. The liar will have no part in heaven but you need to prey for your neighbors to find faith.

Hi Tdianne.

God does love you, he also loves your aunt.

Love is his nature. It's impossible for God not to Love.

Whether, reward or chastening, God do it out of Love when it is a direct act coming from him.

But why do God allow evil to come upon us by the world.

I believe it's for our spiritual growth.

We also have to keep in mind that Christ suffered and he is truly the only one we can call good.

Here is where you will have to trust God!

In the end we become stronger. I have to lean on Romans 8:28.

Why do God allow bad things to happen to Good people is a often asked question.

Here's a few things to consider.

1) Bad things may happen to good people in this world, but this world is not the end. Christians have an eternal perspective: "We do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.

2) Bad things happen to good people, but God uses those bad things for an ultimate, lasting good. "We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him..

3) Bad things happen to good people, but those bad things equip believers for deeper ministry.

God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.

4) Bad things happen to good people, and the worst things happened to the best Person. Jesus was the only truly Righteous One, yet He suffered more than we can imagine. We follow in His footsteps: "If you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God. To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.

I know it's hard when we are down but we have to trust God.

God bless you and we will be praying for you.

Heavenly Father,

May Your Child here be given your Comfort. Abba Father, meet Tdianne every need, provide them their daily bread to your praise of your glory.

Comfort Tdianne, comfort them, open doors YOU want for them and meet every need both material needs and spiritual needs, bc in Christ Jesus You are Father and Provider, you see wrong and injustice and will repay, for you take note of the good and the bad.

In Jesus name direct and order aright Tdianne steps to your best places for them. In Lord Jesus name,

Amen.

Dear Sister , think on this verse . Romans chapter 8 verse 28 . As Christians we are never told that we will not suffer in this life , we suffer the same as everyone else . Christ our Redeemer suffered every day because he shared our humanity and it's impossible to be a human and to not suffer in this world . We Christians know that God is always with us and that He knows what is best for us . Maybe it will be better for you to move ? Whatever happens in this life we must trust in our God , that is what faith is , trusting in God's love and mercy every day , even on the days that seem to us to be bad . Read the book of Genesis and pay attention to the account of Joseph and his brothers . These things are written and preserved by God for our benefit , to comfort and enlighten us so that our faith in Him gets stronger . This way we stay close to Him even when things get a bit tough on us .
