Ever wondered why…? May 25, 2011

Ever wondered why…? Why do these things happen in my life, or the lives of those I love — you know, those things that noone expects, noone deserves, noone plans for — why?
Good question…and, I don’t think it dishonors God for us to ask why. But, on the other hand, the other side of life’s coin reflects for us the reason. Many times in life we live one-sided, meaning we rarely, if ever, flip the life coin over to see what it offers/reflects. Trouble and trials, tribulations tend for us to do what we aren’t willing to do…look on the other side. Encrypted on that side of the coin is this verse, “Christ in you, the HOPE of glory!”. WOW! Finally I see the reason for living — it is God in me, living out God’s life in me, to bring glory to God in me.
Now my circumstances aren’t viewed necessarily as trials, tribulations, trouble — but as opportunities to see God at work. He may not change the circumstances around me, but He certainly can change the atmosphere that surrounds those circumstances. And, my circumstances reflect His love for me through amazing grace. Only He can deliver me, only He can sustain me, only He can help me endure…it’s His life in me, for His glory!
Whatever you may be facing, praise Him! Whatever state you find yourself, praise Him! Whatever need you have, praise Him!
Help is on the way…don’t give up…HE is faithful and HE is sufficient – even for you!
Blessings!
