I just want to say that I love how God prepares us for things before they happen! That has always been something that I really appreciate and I love that God loves us enough to equip us for the things that He is going to put us through. One of my favorites quotes is, "God wont bring us to something He can't carry us through"
This weekend was really tough for me with just thoughts and stuff and at the time I could not see how any of it could be good I just had to tell myself that it was going to be okay and that God had a reason for all the things He does. Then, hindsight being 20/20, I realized why God put me through it! It is so true that God works all things out for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28) because something happened today and because God had prepared my heart beforehand I was able to accept it without being hurt! I realized that the small amount of pain I had experienced this weekend was only so that I would be saved from excruciating heartache today and now I still have hope where, if God hadn't prepared my heart, I would have been left hopeless and heart broken. God is good!
So often when we're going through something hard it's easy to curse God for it or question why it is happening but God's thoughts are not our thoughts nor are His ways our ways and so we can't always see why He does things but I can say that Im glad He does things the way He does because my life would suck without Him! He prepares us and I am so glad for that!
