[*eN.€0ÜNt.eR$*] …Have you ever wondered … why you meet certain people in your life ? especially those that just come and go … or those that become your enemy or those that betray you ? have you ever wondered what is God’s plan in having all these happen in your life ? His purpose for letting you go through all of these things ?
I was thinking … and I pondered … and eventually … I came up with a good enough reason for me … He let’s us go through certain things to help us grow … staying in our comfort zone will not help us to grow … thus … we all have to go through certain tough times in our lives … make decisions that are wrong … where we have to clean up the mess that is the result of our poor decision making … but after each of these things happen to us … we become stronger … but not with our strength … because it is when we are lost … broken … that we turn back to Jesus …
Sometimes … it is not because God wants us to go through tough times that He puts us through tests … but it’s because we have forgotten all about Him … got too busy with our lives … or even give credit to ourselves for the things that God done … not us …
As for the people we encounter … well … most of them do make an impact in our lives … the close ones make big impacts … and the others … subtle ones … enemies challenge you to forgive them and love them … loved ones challenge you to cherish them and not take them for granted … those that just come and go … they somehow also make an impact in our lives … though we do not know the reasons why we meet certain people who do not seem to matter much in our lives … the truth is … they do matter in our lives …
none of us know each other by coincidences … none of our paths crossed by accident … we are part of each others lives because of God … it is all in His plans … though some do not play a major role … all of them matters because we met them for a reason that only God knows … till we see Him in heaven … just cherish everyone that cross your path … you will never know if they will actually play a major role in your life … just like how friends started out as strangers … you’ll never know if this stranger actually turns out to be the one that God has planned for you …
love always,
Cheryn …
