We know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. —Romans 8:28
God sovereignly and purposefully ordains and orchestrates the circumstances of our lives. There is no such thing as happenstance or accident. Nothing catches Him off guard. We need to remember that what we see now is not the whole story. If we could see what God sees and know what He knows, our hearts would be at peace.
The challenges we face may also be a part of God writing someone else’s story. God wants to use our story to be a means of His grace and intervention in the lives of others—even those who may have “wrecked” our story.
Those who trust in Him will never be disappointed (Isa. 49:23). Not every chapter in this life has a “happy” ending. But every true child of God will live “happily ever after.” We can be sure of that.
You can trust God to write your story—and you can be sure that in the end, He will right your story!
