\"\"<\/a>I think that every person has their good points and their bad points.<\/p>\n

I think that every country has got it\u2019s good points and it\u2019s bad points.<\/p>\n

I think that every government has it\u2019s good points and it\u2019s bad points.<\/p>\n

I think that every city has got it\u2019s good points and it\u2019s bad points.<\/p>\n

I think that every house has got it\u2019s good points and it\u2019s bad points.<\/p>\n

I think that every car has got it\u2019s good points and it\u2019s bad points.<\/p>\n

I think that every job has got it\u2019s good points and it\u2019s bad points.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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\u2019t be like that, but that is the way it is. Let me give you an example from the Bible.<\/p>\n

One day Jesus asked his disciples who they thought he was, and Peter replied: \u201cYou are the Christ, the Son of the living God.\u201d Jesus commended him for that statement and said: \u201cFlesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.\u201d So Peter was used by Almighty God at that moment!<\/p>\n

Then, a few minutes later, Jesus says to Peter: \u201cGet thee behind me Satan!\u201d Wow. So Peter was used by God, and also used by Satan!<\/p>\n

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\u2019t give up. There is hope for all of us yet!<\/p>\n

Just keep on believing!<\/p>\n
