Things Could Always Be Worse

Here's an inspirational verse from 2 Chronicles

¹⁸ After all this, the Lord struck Jehoram with the severe intestinal disease. ¹⁹ The disease grew worse and worse, and at the end of two years it caused his bowels to come out, and he died in agony. His people did not build a great funeral fire to honor him as they had done for his ancestors.

²⁰ Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years. No one was sorry when he died. They buried him in the City of David, but not in the royal cemetery.

That's what you get for killing your brothers and causing your people to worship idols!
