Sometimes life deals us a bad hand. It just doesn’t care. We are given everything that doesn’t work out and nothing that does. But does that mean we’re alone? What does it mean when life is giving us everything wrong?
I believe that in life, we are offered opportunities to see things as God sees them. In life, not everything works out. We are all too familiar with the things that do not, and in some circumstances, this is all we encounter. In life, we have to remember that we are not in charge. Yes, it is indeed God who challenges us with obstacles we must overcome. In life, things don’t always seem fair. Why is it worse for me than the other person? Why am I struggling while my peer is doing exceptionally well? This is especially true in the generation of social media. Why are we comparing ourselves to others?
In life, you have to be your own person. And if that means struggling in everything, then that has to be your life for a while. It doesn’t mean that you’ll never have anything to look forward to, to the contrary, you will have everything to look forward to if you have faith in God. This definitely applies to each person who places God before worldly wants and needs. This is what we should all aspire to be. Humble faith and dedication to Godly pursuits will place you on a higher plane of existence than your neighbor, and this is what will set you apart in God’s eyes.
