Should Christians be Sad? It is hard not be sad or at least concern with the developments that we are seeing happening around us. Crime goes on unchecked, those who are trying to follow the will of God are persecuted and it seems like God does not care. The answer to this question and concerns can be found in the Bible, for example, read Proverbs 23:17-18 and John 11:25 and tell me what it says. Should you be sad when you have Jesus? What is being promised here?
