With all the tragic events that have been happening worldwide, I've seen a great amount of people trying to justify why they question and blame God when bad things happen. Seeing all of this negativity really makes me sit and think about how thankful I am to have the relationship I have with Christ.
These people, that question and blame God are missing the one thing that keeps us Christians going, and that's HOPE. Without my hope in God and my Lord and Savior then yes, I am living a wasteful life. If I didn't have the hope of Jesus Christ returning again, to take me up to heaven for an eternity of life with him, then I would feel helpless too.
Side note:
(The book of Habakkuk is a great example to our present times and I urge you to read it like I did because it is extremely relevant and the ending is all about praise and faith!! Please read it, it isn't very long either!)

Having faith in God (through whatever tragic event may happen to us or anyone else) is key.
