Good

Once again, Josiah and I are closing out the day by spending time talking about our experiences when he asks me, "Dad, why did God make bad guys?" An interesting question. As I understand my boy's current phase of growth and his deep desire for justice, which causes him to fight the "bad guys," rescue the victim, and help those in need throughout his playtimes, I perceive his struggle with this ongoing, seemingly never ending, battle. Yet, it is the right fight, an honorable struggle as we desire good and right doing in ourselves and for others. And one day, it will be over; Truth will be known by everyone. Which side will I have fought the hardest? Finally, for the record, God did not make "bad guys," He made men and women who can make choices, and He gives them grace and mercy. Remember to do good.
