Are you guys like me? Well, I am 2talking to fellow born again christian believers. Do you sometimes end up thinking and asking again and again what you already know?
Specifically, I am thinking about this. When bad things happen as we go through life, I will end up thinking and, sometimes even say out loud. Why is this bad thing happening to me?
Seriously, it's like I already know the answer though. What Sam? Am I thinking that if I ask again and again? Or, say it out loud, the answer is going to change?
Folks it is not going to change. It is what it is. Actually, if I really think about it? Do I even want it to change?
1st of all I am thinking God wants it this way. So, things are going to go His way. The 2nd thing is think about this. " God is allowing bad things to happen to us why? Because he is training us for whatever God has in store for us in eternity.
If God thinks I need some training by going through bad stuff 1st in order to fully get that training? Who am I to argue with God and say anything about that? Nope, I think I will do no such thing.

So, God whatever you want me to do or go through bring it on! I know that even though it's going to be pretty tough? Possibly really hurtful? It will Be OK because I know you will help me and be with me as I go through any storm!
