When Life Goes Terribly Wrong
Thank You, God,
For the way You teach.
Through Your Word and others,
My heart You will reach.
You help me to find
Contentment and peace,
To rest in Your arms;
In You, I'm complete.
Complete to be
Happy and free;
In all circumstances,
Your strength in me.
(Based on Philippians 4)
Interruptions can be stressful and our circumstances disappointing. Our schedules may have to change and can mess up our to-do list. Interruptions come in many forms and can alter our day or rewrite the rest of our life.
Interruptions can be messages sent by God to show us something we would not otherwise see. Can they develop character? Can they be new opportunities? Can they show us how to help others? Can they draw us closer to God? Our response is important. Can we trust God in all circumstances?
God interrupted the lives of Abraham, Joseph, and Moses and changed their lives, giving them the opportunity to fulfill God’s perfect plan for them. He can interrupt us today. Let’s learn from them. How can they make our spiritual life better? How can it draw us closer to God and increase our faith? Bring your problems to prayer and to praise and God will do the rest.
