Why do bad things happen? It’s an honest
question that both believers and unbelievers have asked throughout life. We
know not to talk about “if” bad things will happen, but “when” – b/c we know
that it happens to all.
This past week I heard on the news – Ingrid
Williams, the wife of Oklahoma City Thunder assistant coach Monty Williams, was
killed in a tragic car accident at the age of 44. She was hit head-on by a car
that crossed over the center lane. She was taken to the hospital and died later
that evening from injuries suffered in the crash. And the driver died at the
scene. Ingrid was traveling with three of her children at the time of the
crash. They are all expected to be ok. She leaves behind a husband and 5
children ranging in age from 5 to 17 years old.
We
know sad new like this affects people every day. You and I may have faced
tragedy in our own lives too. When tragedy happens, we may be left to wonder – Why do Bad things happen? This morning
we want to listen to the answer of our Savior as he shares with us both the
reason and the result.
