Good Morning!
2 Thessalonians 1:3-6
3 Dear brothers and sisters, we always thank God for you, as is right, for we are thankful that your faith is flourishing and you are all growing in love for each other. 4 We proudly tell God's other churches about your endurance and faithfulness in all the persecutions and hardships you are suffering. 5 But God will use this persecution to show his justice. For he will make you worthy of his Kingdom, for which you are suffering, 6 and in his justice he will punish those who persecute you.
Holy Bible, New Living Translation, (Wheaton, IL: Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.) 1996.
Why do bad things happen to good people, those serving the Lord? This is the questions so many people ask today. Many outside of Christ say, "If there is a God why would He let this terrible thing happen?" This often will keep them from coming to believe that God loves and cares of them. Because there is sin our world, there is suffering, sickness and death for all people, those who love God and those who do not. Pain and suffering come from three areas in this world. One is because there is sin and all of us will eventually die because of it. Sin is evil and goes against God's will. Man has free will and many choose to do evil and many others suffer because of their evil choice. The second circumstance that brings suffering is our own choices. If we choose to smoke, we will eventually suffer. If we choose to jump off a cliff, we will suffer. These are very obvious choices that will lead to our suffering. Others are not so obvious, but all of the choices we make in life have consequences either good or bad. The third circumstance in life that brings suffering is our decision to serve Christ. And that is what the Thessalonians were suffering. Paul had to leave Thessalonica very quickly because of persecution and so the believers he left behind also suffered greatly for their decision to serve Christ. Many in this country do not suffer much because of their decision to serve the Lord. But many around the world everyday are killed because they serve Him.
Whatever your reason for suffering, God is not indifferent, uncaring, unjust or powerless to protect you. Bad things happen and we may never know the reason why. The consequences of sin (not our sin, but sin in the world) and our bad decisions are usually the reason for our suffering. It is important to remember that even though we suffer, God is still in control and can use our suffering for our good, for those who love Him. Your focus should remain on His Word and His love even though you do not understand the "why" of your pain. Know that He is always with you and will never leave you, no matter what you are feeling or experiencing. Just because you cannot understand or do not know the reason for the things that have happened does not mean that God is not with you. Read the Psalms and see what others have suffered through and see how God worked in their lives. And then trust that He will give you peace of mind and heart during your time of pain.
Have a God Day!

Buenos días!
2 Tesalonicenses 1:3-63 Amados hermanos, siempre damos gracias a Dios por ustedes, como es justo, porque estamos agradecidos de que su fe esté floreciendo y de que todos estén creciendo en el amor de los demás. 4 Con orgullo les decimos a las otras iglesias de Dios acerca de su perseverancia y fidelidad en todas las persecuciones y dificultades que están sufriendo. 5 Pero Dios usará esta persecución para mostrar su justicia. Porque él os hará dignos de su reino, por el cual estáis sufriendo, 6 y en su justicia castigará a los que os persiguen. Santa Biblia, Nueva Traducción Viviente, (Wheaton, IL: Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.) 1996.
¿Por qué le suceden cosas malas a la gente buena, a la que sirve al Señor? Estas son las preguntas que mucha gente se hace hoy en día. Muchos fuera de Cristo dicen: "Si hay un Dios, ¿por qué permitiría que sucediera esta cosa terrible?" Esto a menudo les impedirá llegar a creer que Dios los ama y se preocupa por ellos. Debido a que hay pecado en nuestro mundo, hay sufrimiento, enfermedad y muerte para todas las personas, para los que aman a Dios y para los que no. El dolor y el sufrimiento provienen de tres áreas en este mundo. Una es porque hay pecado y todos nosotros eventualmente moriremos a causa de él. El pecado es malo y va en contra de la voluntad de Dios. El hombre tiene libre albedrío y muchos eligen hacer el mal y muchos otros sufren a causa de su mala elección. La segunda circunstancia que trae sufrimiento son nuestras propias elecciones. Si elegimos fumar, eventualmente sufriremos. Si elegimos saltar de un precipicio, sufriremos. Estas son opciones muy obvias que nos llevarán a sufrir. Otros no son tan obvios, pero todas las decisiones que tomamos en la vida tienen consecuencias buenas o malas. La tercera circunstancia en la vida que trae sufrimiento es nuestra decisión de servir a Cristo. Y eso es lo que los tesalonicenses estaban sufriendo. Pablo tuvo que salir de Tesalónica muy rápidamente debido a la persecución, por lo que los creyentes que dejó atrás también sufrieron mucho por su decisión de servir a Cristo. Muchos en este país no sufren mucho debido a su decisión de servir al Señor. Pero muchos en todo el mundo son asesinados todos los días porque le sirven.
Cualquiera que sea la razón de tu sufrimiento, Dios no es indiferente, indiferente, injusto o impotente para protegerte. Suceden cosas malas y es posible que nunca sepamos la razón. Las consecuencias del pecado (no nuestro pecado, sino el pecado en el mundo) y nuestras malas decisiones suelen ser la razón de nuestro sufrimiento. Es importante recordar que a pesar de que sufrimos, Dios todavía tiene el control y puede usar nuestro sufrimiento para nuestro bien, para aquellos que lo aman. Tu enfoque debe permanecer en Su Palabra y Su amor aunque no entiendas el "por qué" de tu dolor. Sepa que Él siempre está con usted y nunca lo dejará, no importa lo que esté sintiendo o experimentando. El hecho de que no puedas entender o no sepas la razón de las cosas que han sucedido no significa que Dios no esté contigo. Lea los Salmos y vea lo que otros han sufrido y vea cómo Dios obró en sus vidas. Y luego confía en que Él te dará paz mental y de corazón durante tu tiempo de dolor.
¡Que tengas un Día de Dios!
