God Still Speaks

I can't read this chapter without making a comment on verse 10. "The thief's purpose is to steal, kill and destroy. My purpose is to give life in all its fulness." The revelation of this verse has transformed my life and has settled so many questions in my mind. I've heard preachers say that "that tragedy is from God, or that sickness is from God, or you lost your job coz Gods wants to test your life a while." Garbage!! Here it plainly says what comes from the devil and what comes from Jesus. Do you see it? Everything that comes to my life to steal, kill and destroy is of the devil. Everything that comes to me to produce life is from God! How hard is that to understand? He says in the next verse, "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. Aren't you glad that Jesus laid it down for you? What love that shows to you and I.
