It astounds me to think how limited human knowledge is. We spend all our time  searching for answers or teaching what we already know, and it feels shameful to admit that there are some things we just can’t know. Generally we stay away from those questions. You know the ones. My favorite is, “why do good things happen to bad people, and vice versa?” because it points to the grey areas of life. Sometimes people even add “if God is so good then…” before the question as the idea of karma fills their minds. To think about the millionaire who profits from sweatshops or the child that is injured in a car accident is bewildering. I’ll admit I don’t know the answer to this question, but maybe it doesn't have just one. What I do know is that all truth comes from the Bible, and so we must start there to find an answer.
