BMV Questions
1. Why does God allow bad things to happen to us? Bad things are a result of sin in the world. It is a part of the free will package. God can make all bad things work for good in our hearts!
2. Do bad things happen because of something I did? Sometimes bad things happen as a result of our sin. Sometimes we are just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

My Shadow
by Robert L. Stevenson
I have a little shadow
that goes in and out with me,
And what can be the use of him
is more than I can see.
He is very, very like me
from the heels up to the head;
And I see him jump before me,
when I jump into my bed.
The funniest thing about him
is the way he likes to grow-
Not at all like proper children,
which is always very slow;
For he sometimes shoots up taller
like an India-rubber ball,
And he sometimes gets so little
that there’s none of him at all.
He hasn’t got a notion
of how children ought to play,
And can only make a fool of me
in every sort of way.
He stays so close beside me,
he’s a coward you can see;
I’d think shame to stick to nursie
as that shadow sticks to me!
One morning, very early,
before the sun was up,
I rose and found the shining dew
on every buttercup,
But my lazy little shadow,
like an errant sleepyhead,
Had stayed at home behind me
and was fast asleep in bed.
