Why Bad Things Happen to Good Catholics: And Other Mysteries​ - Henri Morice

Why Bad Things Happen to Good Catholics: And Other Mysteries of God's Love and Providence--Explained. Why you should keep trusting in God even when it all seems to go wrong. Here are straightforward and faithfully Catholic answers to questions that have vexed souls and troubled believers for centuries: If God is all good, why does He allow evil? Why do even those who devote their lives to pleasing Him meet with setbacks and  disasters? How to see God's loving Hand in everything you're going through. Why Bad Things Happen to Good Catholics will banish from your mind forever the temptation to think that events unfold according to blind chance or even that evil ultimately triumphs in this world.

The author, Fr. Henri Morice, helps you see the bad things that happen to you in the glorious light of God's loving Providence. He dispels some of the mystery surrounding human suffering to reveal how God draws goodness for your own soul and for the souls of others out of even the worst tragedies you suffer. You'll discover here how to recognize God's love working in all the events of your life, day by day, moment by moment. Fr. Morice helps you recognize how (believe it or not) God actually needs you in His plan for the world, and how He speaks to you daily in subtle ways. He instructs you in how you should respond to God's call in your daily life, and how trust in God's Providence will bring you peace more lasting than any worldly satisfaction. This remarkable guide even shows you how to set aside forever! worry about the future, how to deal with misfortune, and how to develop full and lasting confidence in God. Why Bad Things Happen to Good Catholics will charge you with renewed gratitude for the God who loves you more than you have ever imagined.

Reviews
With so much suffering and pain in our world, it is a consolation to have Fr. Morice's concise and erudite explanation of God's love and providence available to us.
-Edward Cardinal Egan: Archbishop of New York

A precious book. It helps us to see and feel how much God really loves us.
-Fr. Ronald D. Lawler, O.F.M. Cap.; Coauthor, The Teaching of Christ

Offers the hint of an explanation and sometimes a good deal more for this most poignant of all mysteries.
-Russell Shaw; Author, Does Suffering Make Sense?

By kindling our faith in God's mysterious Providence, the book gives us the encouragement we need in the midst of life's difficulties and in the face of suffering. It reminds us of Christ's promise of peace as it invites us to respond to Him with trusting faith and courageous love.
-Most Reverend John J. Myers, Archbishop of Newark

Your trust in the Lord will increase as you learn
Why God is never nearer to you than when He seems farthest away. God's blessings: Why you may not have noticed some of His greatest gifts to you. How God uses even trifles and incidental events to transform lives. The Church: Why she is spiritually strongest when she appears to be weakest in the eyes of the non-believing world. The hard but effective method that God uses to reveal your faults to you and lead you to correct them. How God's unseen interventions determine your life's course more than your own most strenuous efforts. Your eternal destiny: Why it's best that you not know it during this life. What you must do to find the special vocation God intends for you.

St. Thérèse of Lisieux: How she preserved her Faith in the midst of a terrible trial and how you can, too. Suffering: Six ways God uses it in your life today to make you a saint. Temptations: How even they can help you draw near to God and become holier. Surprising means God uses to lead souls to the purposes He has assigned to them. How you can be sure that your prayers are always answered but not always in the ways that you expect. Angels: Yes, they're active today. How God sends them to you to keep you from dangers and to bring you His graces. Your sense of God's peace: How it can coexist with suffering and grow deeper even in the worst times of crisis. How you can become attentive to all the manifestations of God’s will. The secret instrument God often uses in order to teach, comfort, and guide you. And much more to help you sing a hymn of thanks even in trials, as you rejoice in God's unfailing love.
