It can't be that bad...... If.

If you have your priorities right nothing can be to bad. However with that said "if" could possibly be the biggest word in the English language. People today are faced with many different challenges, health, financial, relational, emotional, vocational, the list goes on and on. When these things strike some times we ask why God why? That is if we are are inclined to believe that God does exist as some claim they don't. If we place all of our faith in the things in the previous list we are going to really be disappointed if not devastated. We have to get our priorities strait.

Going back to the title of today's blog no matter what you are going through it can't be that bad if. If again being the key word. If Christ is your number one priority you win. He has not forgot about you or forsaken you what ever you are going through believe it or not he will turn it into good. Romans 8: 35-37 makes this very clear.
 35 Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death? 36 (As the Scriptures say, “For your sake we are killed every day; we are being slaughtered like sheep.”) 37 No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.

Overwhelming victory is yours. But only through Christ.
Today consider Christ, consider what he has done for you or if you ask him into your life consider what he can do for you and then remember it can be that bad "if" you have placed your faith in Christ.
