I don't think we get answers to every question. We don't get all the whys. But I think when we look back to the end of our lives, if we do the best we can, and we will see that the things we begged God to take from us, the things we cursed him for, the things that made us turn our backs on him, are the things that were the biggest blessings, the biggest opportunities for growth.

About This Quote

The world is full of questions. We don't always know why things happen the way they do. But we do know that things happen for a reason. And that reason is always better than the alternative.

So we should look at the things that have happened to us and ask ourselves if there might be a lesson in it somewhere. The Bible says that "the wages of sin is death," but it also says that God has a plan. If we have been hurt by another person or circumstance, we should ask ourselves why.

If we have been hurt, it may be time to learn from it and take advantage of the opportunity to grow from it.
