From the worst to the best, that’s how we deal with adversity and let God take control. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard people say, “Well if God is such a good God, why do bad things happen?” It’s true, God is all knowing and in total control of the universe and our lives BUT He also allows us to have free will. Sometimes it’s because of the free will and actions of others that bad things happen. Other times, things like sickness and death just happen through no one’s fault. They’re just a part of life. What really matters is how we take those adverse events and turn them into a situation that shows just how mighty and powerful God can be.
All of us have a “worst” thing of some type in our life. One of my worst, being diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer. My best, writing about my feelings in this blog in hopes of encouraging others. How can you make your worst thing a best thing? Please don’t waste all that pain. Turn it into something full of beauty and grace. It’s the struggle that makes us stronger. I never said it would be easy. All I ask you to do is think about it and make a choice for better.
Blessings, Cindy J
