Good or bad? Have false idols? 2 Chronicles 31:1

Good morning all. God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!
   Can bad or evil be changed to a great good?  What do you think?  A man with time and money happens to see a woman of great beauty.  Then he desires her and she is constantly on his mind, but, the problem lies in the fact that she is married to someone he knows.  Hmm!  Now the husband happens to be out of town.  The desire to be with this woman grows so he, as a friend, has dinner with her, is charming, rich, powerful, and then has sex with her.  Awww! Desires filled, mission complete.
   But wait, she returns to him, her husband still out of town, to report she is pregnant.  What!? This can't be.  So what to do?  The rich and powerful man arranges for "an accident" to happen to the husband.  It does, he is dead, no problem, now marry the beauty and live happily ever after.
   Well, this did not happen.  There were many tragedies for this man of God, King David, until a child named Solomon was born.  Solomon came to power and was definitely a man of God.  Solomon showed great wisdom and was a man of God and one act he had performed is something we all need to practice today.  Look at 2 Chronicles 31:1  "Now when all this was finished all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and brake the images in pieces, and cut down the groves, and threw down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had utterly destroyed them all.  The all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities."
  What did this just say?  All idols, false gods were destroyed.  What false gods do you have? Can good come from your dark side?  Two things for you to think about here: can good come from evil; and what false gods or idols do you have in your life?  Take time to reflect.  Love you all.
  In Christ's Love and Grace
