I bet there isn’t one person you know who hasn’t faced disappointment. It is a common human ailment, because we live in a fallen world, and on a planet that has a curse on it. We have all faced some sort of disappointment in our life. God isn’t the one to blame. He gets blamed all the time…especially with words like “everything happens for a reason”. By that statement, God gets the blame for every single thing that happens in people’s lives. I can agree with part of that statement that there is a reason behind everything, but it isn’t always a good thing. We know the devil comes to kill, steal and destroy. So when evil things happen around you, it certainly could be for a reason, but not a good one. We know Jesus came to bring abundant life, so his reasons are to bless and prosper you. We have to keep those lines clear. In the midst of dealing with junk that comes our way, we have to recognize the source. It really is good to think like a preschooler at that point. If it is Good, it is God, if it is bad, it is the enemy. We can put our trust in a GOOD God. He has our best interest at heart. But many people find it hard to put their trust in God when they feel let down. God is the trust worthy one. He is the one who turn bad situations around. He can take what was meant for evil and turn it to good. Only our great God can do that. So keep on trusting in our great GOD. He loves you and wants to walk you from your greatest disappointments right into His amazing presence. There you will find all that you need to face life with joy and purpose.
