“If it doesn’t challenge you it doesn’t change you.” (Fred Devito)
The question
that everyone seems to want to ask of God is “why me?” Your heavenly Father
chooses sometimes to provide with ideas to that question, and other times He
chooses to remain silent. Think about
this: “If I were to say, 'God, why me?' about the bad
things, then I should have said, 'God, why me?' about the good things that
happened in my life.”[i]
God is under no obligation
to let any of us know why He chooses to do whatever He allows in our life (even
if we would like that). "God has a reason for allowing things to happen. We may never
understand his wisdom but we simply have to trust his will."[ii] “Life is full of challenges, but
these challenges are only given to you because God knows your faith is strong
enough to get you through them.”[iii] God
knows the lesson He needs to teach you with anything He brings your way. Are
you willing to learn it the first time (or will it take several painful divine
lessons to finally get it).
Psalm 37:5 (TLB) says: Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him to help you do it, and
he will. Since you have little control over many of the
things that happen in your life, allow your heavenly Father that can control it
all to take over. God’s purpose will happen so why fight against it? Life is
much easier when you are more flexible with the divine reasoning of life. There
is no doubt that God can (and will) use you. Are you willing to be used no
matter what He needs to do to prepare you for that? [iv]
