What happened?

Lately I watch my family make plans and then watch them blow up in our faces. Perfectly laid out things seem to be going the right direction then all of a sudden make a sudden sharp turn without any warning. We’ve been handling it pretty good but it comes a point in time when you stop and say what’s going on? Why is this happening?

It seems like no matter how much you plan life is going to throw unexpected curves at you so what do you do then? Do you run? Do you cry? Do you bend to whatever way life wants you go? What do you do?

The right thing to say would be to have faith. To know that no matter what happens God is there and that he has a bigger and better plans for you. But sometimes when it gets bad it’s hard to remember that, so what can we do then? We have to look at the past. We have to look at the things we have already been through.

Sometimes it doesn’t help to try to think about the things that will come… you just need to focus on the things that have already been done. Then let that give you strength to move on. And we haven’t learned anything we’ve that history repeats itself. So if God hasn’t let you down yet he won’t let you down in the future.

So my answer is when the unexpected happens remember what is expected. God will be there. God will answer. God will see you through. And that’s something that you SHOULD expect.

Just look at your past…
