God uses evil, like He uses everything else, for His own good and just purpose, to glorify His name.
Just because we can't always understand how a virus can bring glory to God's name, we must still acknowledge that He did indeed create the virus, and like everything else in existence, it conforms to His will.
Or else the virus's will is stronger than God's will.
Sometimes I want my little girl to just stay the perfect little huggable innocent size she is right now and to never change. And, as much as she can understand, or could understand, a static existence would be comforting. She woudl never have to grow up, make hard decisions, get disappointed, make mistakes. She could just cuddle up with mom and dad, reading books, eating fruit snacks and watching Timon and Pumbaa for eternity.
But she will grow and I will be there to help her, but not to do everythign for her and micromanage her existence.
It's comforting to be a helpless baby and to have daddy take care of your everything. But I simply don't accept any philosophy of life which states that we never grow, since we never have any responsiblity for anything and that whatever we do is smiled upon by our Father.
