Then Cain went out from the presence of the Lord and dwelt in the land of Nod on the east of Eden.
And Cain knew his wife,and she conceived and bore Enoch.And He built a city,
and called the name of the city after the name of his son-Enoch.
GEN.4:16,17 NKJV

Here we see Cain being driven from the presence of The Lord , and this was a bad situation but after Cain left the presence of The Lord , he bare a son named Enoch.

Enoch meant dedicated one , Enoch went one to please God see GEN.5:24
he was Good from bad so to speak.

Many times in our Christian experience we face , trials, perils , testings , that are just bad news. But good can come from the bad times and unplesantries in our lives.

It was terrible that Cain went away from God's presence , but despite of the terrible situation , a child was borned who pleased God.

In our bad times something good can come from these unpleasant circumstances.

Good can come from bad.
Truly with God , good can came from bad.

There definitely is good that comes out of bad situations. No doubt about it.

Look what came from a young girl getting pregnant out of wedlock? That looked like a VERY bad situation. From it was birthed the Savior of the world!!

We all go through some very difficult situations and we wonder why and we often mumble and complain about it too, but the fact is God is working things for our good and oftentimes for the good of others as well.

Tough times make us tough in all the good ways if we'll just "hang tough" and let God have His way. :thumbsup

I submit that sometimes it's the bad times that get us to the place that God can use and bless us! Just ask Joseph. :praying

Sis. Felicity,

That is so true! He IS working all things for the good of His people,

He always has, always will. However, like children, who need discipline,

He will correct us. If we refuse to be corrected, we are called something

besides His children! HE loves His children very much!!!

Blessings,
