Do you ever wonder why God allows you to experience the things you’ve experienced? Heartache. Loss of a job. Financial hardship. Some things that we experience are a result of an action or decision we made. Sometimes things or people are removed from our lives because they were simply temporary or didn’t mean us well to begin with. Whatever the reason or the cause may be we can have faith that, “We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” Romans 8:28 (NIV).
God has the power to work ALL THINGS, the good, the bad, and the ugly, out for your betterment. I can remember challenges I’ve experienced in the past and upon reflection I realized that God was only refining me for my purpose. Through interactions with people, He taught me love and tolerance for people. Through financial obstacles, He taught me responsibility and to be a good steward of the resources provided to me. Through loss, He taught me that I can be totally dependent on Him and have faith that He truly is my fortress and I can find peace and rest in him. As you approach obstacles, you may feel like you are going through a storm, but remember: You are getting through to become a better you! The you that God has purposed you to be.
Be blessed!
