       Yes, God does do good things for unbelievers, as Jesus clearly taught us, but they cannot and should not expect God’s favor when they are clearly violating his Word, his standard for righteousness. So, what is God working good out of for us as Christians? Well, Paul tells us that God is working good out of “all things.” What is “all things”? Well, all things is just that, all things. Any and every circumstance you can think of. God brings good out of good situations, and he brings good out of bad situations. At times I believe God allows us to make mistakes because he desires to teach us something important. It is true that God can prevent us from making a mistake, and oftentimes he does. But sometimes he stands aside and allows us to make the mistake. I use to be really hard on myself in my life at the times I would make a blunder, a misstep. I would pretty much punish myself for bad choices. Maybe you can relate.
