I think that every person has their good points and their bad points.

I think that every country has got it’s good points and it’s bad points.

I think that every government has it’s good points and it’s bad points.

I think that every city has got it’s good points and it’s bad points.

I think that every house has got it’s good points and it’s bad points.

I think that every car has got it’s good points and it’s bad points.

I think that every job has got it’s good points and it’s bad points.

So I think we must enjoy the good things in life. Fix the bad things. But if we cannot fix the bad things, then we must just do the best we can with whatever the situation is.

Many times in my life, some people that I have known have been very good to me, but those same people have also been very bad to me. It shouldn’t be like that, but that is the way it is. Let me give you an example from the Bible.

One day Jesus asked his disciples who they thought he was, and Peter replied: “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Jesus commended him for that statement and said: “Flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.” So Peter was used by Almighty God at that moment!

Then, a few minutes later, Jesus says to Peter: “Get thee behind me Satan!” Wow. So Peter was used by God, and also used by Satan!

Later on, Peter denied that he ever even knew Jesus. Wow. But Jesus forgave him. Later on, Peter was mightily used by God to heal the sick and to raise the dead! So, don’t give up. There is hope for all of us yet!

Just keep on believing!
