Luckwarm

Some Christians have a negative attitude about the word "luck".  God is sovereign but he does not control every single thing that happens.  My dad taught me not to smoke by insisting that I take a puff of a cigarette and asking what I thought of it.  Is that God's favor is that luck?  Mankind make poor decisions on a constant basis, not realizing when they've made good decisions necessarily.  Sometimes God may be at work within those decisions, but who can say?  If someone wins the lottery, that's not necessarily good luck.  That could be God's favor resting on them.  But if they plow through the money in pursuit of selfishness God's favor could turn away from them and cause the kind of catastrophic situations that many Grand Prize winners face after winning the lottery.  Is that bad luck?  No.  It's a consequence of one's bad decisions.  The thing is people's decisions effect other people.  God doesn't withold what we need.  But luck is not simply having what you need.  Nobody needs anything.  The Book of Job recounts what many would refer to as a devastating series of tragedy that came upon Job.  But he still had everything he needed.  We don't need to be happy.  We don't need to be healthy.  We dont even need to exist.  Many people exist in perpetual torment in the depths of Hell.  Heaven is far more than anyone can ask for.  God is sufficient in this world of our own self depreciating muck.  Maybe God does ensure that wreckless decisions benefit those most rightfully able to receive the consequences thereof, but in a quarter mile radius, if you throw a rock and it hits someone in the head, the odds of it hitting someone who God's favor rests on is kind of slim.
