Life's Lessons

  

   There are many times in our lives when we must be reassured about our morals, rights, or who we are as a person.  A way it is said, " God will give you only as much as you can bear."  I know I have needed to hear that many times throughout my life to give me a swift kick to get me going again.  I have learned to never question God, for any reason.  Although there have been many times when I have been caught thinking.... "I wish he didn't trust me so much..."

   But why do we doubt him? If he is God, we should instill everything, including trust, right?  So why don't we?  This is not saying anything against you or God, I am merely questioning  human nature.  Have you noticed that HE lets us do this? He allows us to do these things to ourselves and the people around us, knowing what is in store.  I am a firm believer in God and his miracles, but I really do enjoy his way of "getting our attention" by wanting us to question him...  He wants US to learn on our own. yes lead by example but its so much more than that. "Everything happens for a reason."  A quote I live by for many different reasons, as do most people I have came into contact with.  It shows us that in every situation, Good or bad, there is or can be a positive or helpful outcome.  9/11 is a great example... It was horrible, everything about it was a disaster. Although what came from it?  We, as a nation, pulled together as one.  for the first time in a long time... WE were a nation. Not one person doesn't remember that day, I was only 11 years old but remember it perfectly.  It's sad that a tragedy pulls people together, but it does, it touches our hearts.  This proves not that God wasn't there, it shows there is something much bigger for us out there.  He is here, and here to stay.  So even if you don't care, don't believe, or just don't understand... just stop and look at what's important in your life.  Did you have to face something or deal with an issue to get where you are? So from now on, before we start bickering and fighting and blaming God... stop and see what good or what change can come from it.  Find a reason... a reason to believe or to just understand why... and remember that Everything Happens for a Reason...
