"Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus, "but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life." John 9:3 NIV
Sometimes we can't understand why bad things happen to good people; even the people of God. We see Christians suffer; we ourselves suffer. We look around to see what God is up to...and quite frankly....sometimes the reason is hard to find.
I don't know about you, but I have had my share of hard times. I have witnessed first hand the difficulties that life can often bring. I have
seen loved ones suffer; felt the loss of a friend. I know what it is like to see your checkbook with negatives down every page of the register. I have experienced what seemed like defeat.
Sure, I'll admit, sometimes, really many times, it is difficult to see what purpose God has for these trials. Then He comes through again. Once again He does what appears to be the impossible. My faith is restored and I have strength to go on again.
I sit back and realize that He was at work all the time; that He had a plan bigger than my problem. I recognize that God is still in control.
Dear friend; precious child of God, don't give up. Keep pressing on! God will not let you down. He is working all things for your good, so that His power might be displayed in your life! His glory will soon be revealed again!
You are on the verge of witnessing another miracle....and to God be all the glory for the great things that He will do!

What can I do but follow you, For You are the Way, the Truth, the Life, And You`ve promised never to leave me, My Savior, my friend, From beginning to end.
