"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened."(Matthew 7:7-8)

"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened."(Matthew 7:7-8)

"Ask". Are you wondering what's going on in your life? Have you ever questioned your Heavenly Father as to what’s going on at your address? Sure you have, maybe not publicly, but you have... Bro Scott, How can you be so sure? You’re breathing, right, then you've questioned. We just don't talk about that kind of non-spiritual stuff out in public. The truth is that every day is not a great day, so why can't we be honest and just talk about it. Let's lay it out on the table and give it a whirl. Have you ever thought about the verse above? Read it slowly, and then just do it. Ask God what's going on, yes you heard me right. "You have not because you ask not" (James 4:2) Just try a conversation with God. I know some of probably think that talking to God is for Preachers and such or something you just pretend to do at church while others are listening. Ask and it shall be given... Shall be given, not maybe, not hope so but shall. Are you hurting, are you struggling with something and you want to know "WHY"? "The path of the righteous is made plain", (Proverbs 15:19) You can trust God, He doesn't lie. Now let me tell you God only speaks "TRUTH", so if you don't want to know, don't ask. Just Sayin... If you are willing to ask then you can continue this journey with us on finding out "Why bad things happen to good people", it could take a while because I have found at least 14 reasons why bad things happen to good people. We have to be willing to face the truth that we are not a perfect human machine. The truth stings a little bit before it sets you free. "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."(John 8:32) We must be willing to deal with our baggage that we picked up along life's journey, because none of us have handled life with care. "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us."(1 John 1:8). It will be a worthy investment of your time to get on this train and get out of the present mess you are in; every day is a new day.

PS. We didn't get in the mess we in overnight so we probably won't get out of it overnight.
