Good or bad, beautiful or ugly; these are our own judgements.  God is the creator of it all; and IS all.  He manifests through the myriad of opposites.  We cannot have day without night, we cannot have the sweet without the bitter.  Our task is to accept the manifestations of God’s will without passing judgement or questioning his wisdom – Jonathan Roof
