Anyways.<br />I totally agree. In fact that's exactly how I believe it to be. God does not cause the evil. I think of Job. While God did say to Satan, look at my servant. Satan was the one who ultimately wanted to harm Job and he did. <br />God used what Satan did for Jobs good, even though it was painful and hard. VERY hard. And really for those all around, we don't know<br />WHAT went through the minds of the "friends" and the wife.<br />Also sin has really done a number on us, but God made a way through Jesus. So glad for that. :)<br />Anyways, very well said. :)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14775304520806240633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488152270326221518.post-5862734281054295072012-04-28T10:23:18.769-05:002012-04-28T10:23:18.769-05:00Erin, I'm really enjoying reading your posts a...Erin, I'm really enjoying reading your posts a second time. :) This one makes me look back over our trials of the past decade and I see how much God has used those to transform me from the inside out.

God created Lucifer to be an angel to be with Him in the heavens, but Lucifer chose to sin and was cast out. I believe that He gave us free will to choose and that's on us, not on Him. Praise God, He is faithful to forgive and make us clean again, when we ask!! <br />I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!<br />Blessings,<br />~ErinErinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03697110369952312067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488152270326221518.post-6926932796963303282011-11-21T10:37:28.886-06:002011-11-21T10:37:28.886-06:00Congrats on being on of the Featured Members of th...Congrats on being on of the Featured Members of the week on vB =)<br />This post really makes me think...<br />I have to disagree with a bit of what you--I believe GOD is the desider of all-GOOD&EVIL(he after all created the devil-so therefore he created evil) SOMETIMES there is a reason he brings evil,bad what have you...
