A question I that comes up often as a pastor is why bad things happen to good people. For example, why do good, Godly people die before it's "their time?" As I was doing my quiet time today, I came across this verse.
Isaiah 57:1
Good people pass away; the godly often die before their time. But no one seems to care or wonder why. No one seems to understand that God is protecting them from the evil to come. For those who follow godly paths will rest in peace when they die.
I found the verse interesting and a new way to look at why people die. In our eyes, death is such a bad thing, but in the eyes of God, death may be a protection of what is to come.
