A Reason why bad things happen

I was out doing some street witnessing a couple of weeks ago. We had a "Trust Jesus" sign. A young couple wanted to take a picture of the sign. The young guy took the picture of his girlfriend standing with the sign with her thumb pointed down. This alarmed me and I immediately engaged them in a conversation. During the conversation, the girl asked me that if there was a God, why would He let bad things happen?

God is giving this country what most people want. A life without God. A life without being accountable. With that comes God's withdrawn hand of blessings and protection. As our country rejects God more and more, more evil will happen to our nation. In my book, we are living in a nation that rejects God and there are only a small fraction who truly serve God. The small number of true followers of Christ are guests in this God forsaken world.

God is giving this country it's last chance to turn to Him. The signs of God's judgment are evident; yet people explain it away to chance and coincidence. The bad things that God lets happen should be a warning sign to all; but unfortunately people like to blame God for the bad and deny Him for His goodness.
