Sometimes as Christians we wonder why ‘good’ people have to die? Sometimes we question God when tragedies take place in the world because it seems as if it’s unfair that these things happen to normal people just like you and me. A flight within a country lasting only 45 minutes turned into a tragedy killing over 190 people. It’s a very sad situation but things like this make me appreciate the fact that I’m still alive today because I am no better than the people on that plane. Neither do I deserve to be here today any more than any of them, it’s only by God’s grace that we are all still alive today. We take a lot of simple, everyday things for granted such as waking up in the morning. But things like these are a gift from God, they are blessings which we should embrace and take upon ourselves to at least say ‘Thank-you’. I pray that God will comfort the families of those in Nigeria. It’s sad to see something like this happening in one of the countries I hold as heritage but I truly believe that we should never blame God for what happens in life. God is good. Sometimes things happen which we can’t explain, but God knows why.

May their souls R.I.P.
