We cannot keep from being tempted, but if we are to honor God by trusting Him, we must not allow such thoughts to lodge in our minds. As Philip Hughes again said, “To question the goodness of God is, in essence, to imply that man is more concerned about goodness than is God…. To suggest that man is kinder than God is to subvert the very nature of God…. It is to deny God; and this is precisely the thrust of the temptation to question the goodness of God.”
