many people say that bad situation or suffer come to our life, it's come from devil, all things happen it's come from devil. i think that devil will frustation with our judge hehehe. i think that not at all come from devil.the other reason why suffer will happen because our self. i give example if we drug, and our money will spent all for drug and we will poor and in the jail, so it's all come from our self.
but the other side of proble come from God to make us strong. God don't want we live in the suffer. but sometime God give suffer to make us strong or fly to the higher level. do you remember about the eagle in the bible. the eagle must force the eagle child to out from the comfort zone. why? because the eagle will teach their child to fly. if eagle not take the comfort zone, their child never fly forever and ever.
God don't like to give suffer, but suffer is the way to make us grow. same with actors in the bible, like peter, paul, moses, joseph, Jesus. they have the suffer situation, and not all from devil. but it's all happened for the Good purpose.like Jesus die for the good purpose, it's all for us. Jesus die, it's all God will. because no salvation without cross
that's all, thanl you very much

I do think that Satan is the originator of all sin. Saying this means that all bad things originate in him. However, saying that, I do not say that we do not have a choice regarding whether or not we will follow God or Satan. We can choose to follow Jesus and then all things that happen to us will be filtered through Jesus. He will not allow anything to come to you that you cannot handle. check out 1 cor 10:13. There is nothing that can happen to us that Jesus will not allow and give us the strength to overcome, if we are within His will for our lives by talking with him and following him daily and moment by moment in our lives. I totally agree, Jesus dying on the cross was a bad situation and definitely Jesus suffered for us. But that was part of God's plan that was put in place when You and I sinned. Adam and Eve chose to follow Satan's lie in the beginning and because of that, we are born sinful, with exposure to bad situations, allowed by God if we follow God. Does this make sense? Hope so.
