God's Character

Todd is still enjoying teaching Sunday School and recently the topic was on why God lets evil happen in this world. We've felt so incredibly blessed by God recently, with a new baby and new house and even a new truck and a free cruise coming up. We are so blessed by each other, our family and friends and realize the gift of these relationships. But we want to love God for who He is, not just what He gives us and have been giving a lot of thought and study to praising Him and enjoying His character even in the face of disaster. The recent anniversary of 9-11 has reminded us that we need to praise Him in all things, and His character is always, good, righteous and loving, no matter what our circumstances or what events come into life. God's willingness to let evil sometimes happen in this world is just as much of a part of His character, and accepting this, and loving Him with all of our heart is definitely something that we've been thinking about. We are grateful for every part of who God is and want to praise Him in all circumstances. He is always GOOD!
