Why Good things Happen to Bad People
Yeah, I know. That feels like it’s backwards. Well,hopefully, I’ll flip it in part 2. But you probably wondered both at some point. Well, I’ve done some research so that you don't have to, and I hope it helps my readers out there. So if you're ready for good things to head your way, let's get into it!
There are lots of ideas of “Bad People.” So, I’m gonna start off with a real blunt, basic one. Adolf Hitler. Actually, stuff went pretty bad for him. Let’s take an ambulence chasing, dishonest lawyer. Life looks great! 3 story house with a pool, fancy car, hot spouse. They got it made, right?
Well, not realy, though. See, the stuff is just for show. In reality, the pool is a constant headache. The car costs too much to maintan, but still has to stay at speed limit, and that spouse is at least the second one. So even if that’s peachy, there’s Alimony and custody to worry about. Ecclesesiastes 12 tells us that all things eventually return to the dust, and all anyone can really do is honor God.
And while you might never see it, there’s usually a breaking point. So, if you witness it, try to forget the image, and see the broken person in front of you. Because, no matter how things seem to be going, we all need help sometimes.
Since we seem to have time for another example, let’s simplify. No big villian type, just somebody who cut you off at the Speed Mart, to get the parking spot you wanted. And let’s say they have tinted windows, and you see aligator boots. There’s a heavy jerk aura. And yeah, the spot you wanted was by the door, as you’re already exhausted.
Now, I’m not gonna do like last time. They probably have issues, but don’t we all? Instead, what feels like a stolen blessing is probably one in disguise. By not parking by the door, your car didn’t get broken into. Or maybe, a telephone pole landed on their roof, but missed yours.
Probably though? That choice messed them up in ways you’ll never see. Like, maybe they can’t afford the ticket they got, because cutting you off was caught on camera. Or some other discreet disaster that happened.
My point is, things are often more in our favor than we think they are. People aren’t monsters, just people. And what looks unfair is usually just right. So, if you’re reading this on the digital device you access, let that be the first in the list of good stuff you enjoy. Try to focus on that.
I hope that blessed you. For a little more, check out voiceintha on blogspot, facebook, X, and instagram Thanks!
