You can’t, and we cannot understand everything that happen to us in life. This is because none of us can see the beginning to the end.

Only God can see the beginning to the end of everything and only Him can also see from the end to the beginning. (Rev 21:6)

Hence, we are to thank Him in every situation we find ourselves. (1Thessalonians 5:18)

Sometimes there might be the need for him to take us backward in order for us to go forward. Sometimes, He might need to close some doors to open new ones. Sometimes, He allows some losses and disappointment to double our blessings. Sometimes, He lets some things happen to us to teach us a lesson to have abiding root to be strong for the future. At times, He allows some battles and storm to come in to grow our spiritual life for future challenges.

Apostle Paul says: “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.”(Ephesians 2:10)

This proves to me as a child of God that we always need to look beyond the mess, the challenges of life, the little delays, the errors and mistakes, the gain and the loss, the failures and disappointment of life, and see ourselves as His workmanship created in Christ unto good works.

It shows you have to forget the delays of life, failures, disappointment and challenges of life and those things you cannot understand cos they have been taken into account by God. Some of these things cannot and will not stop your destiny.

But you must be in Christ so that God can help your unbelief. Hence I advise you to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour. Ask Him to forgive your sins and come into your life today.

Say: Lord Jesus, I am sorry for my sin. Forgive me. (confess your sin) I accept you today as my Lord and Saviour, come into my life and remain there forever. Amen.
