His ways are not our ways...

There are certain things in this life that we will never understand or make sense of.  

One can drive oneself crazy trying to figure out things like why bad things happen to good people or why sometimes evil people appear to thrive.


Isaiah 55:8-9

English Standard Version (ESV)
8For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
   neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD.
9
For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
   so are my ways higher than your ways
   and my thoughts than your thoughts.

 Romans 8:28 Tells us that all things work for good for those who love God.  

This does not mean that ALL things are good.  It means that ALL things work for good for those who love God.  Instead of worrying and trying to figure life out, focus on loving God and drawing closer to Him.  That is where true peace and joy comes from.
