If our original parents (Adam and Eve) had only obeyed God in the first place, sin wouldn't have entered the world and we wouldn't have to deal with pain and sorrow. But lest we become judgmental, consider how frequently we make wrong choices. Consider how frequently we disobey God. Best to leave judging to God and stick to our own business. Tribulation is here and there are times we are afflicted by it.
The good news is that God promises to deliver the righteous out of all their troubles (Psalm 34:19 NKJV).
All their troubles? That's what it says. God loves us that much! And consider this:
"In all these these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
For I am convinced that neither death nor life,
neither angels nor demons,
neither the present nor the future,
nor any powers,
neither height nor depth,
nor anything else in all creation,
will be able to separate us
from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus Our Lord."
-Romans 8:37-39 NIV
So bring it on! I can do everything through Him who gives me strength (Philippians 4:13 NIV)
