Everything Happens For A Reason!

Through life we have many ups and downs, good days, and bad days, trials, and tears, or joy and laughter.
All of that and more. Sometimes it is very rough to face all of life's problems.  You feel as if you cannot go on with life. You don't know where to turn.  All seems completely lost. What are you to do? Give up on life?

NO! When something terrible falls down upon your head, it feels as if that is all that you CAN do. 
What would be the point of living a life that you are moping through all day long?!

The answer to all of life's problems is this: Look to God! God is here by our side through every little trial, every tear, every  trouble you may face.  Not only that, he is by your side sharing with you all the joy and laughter that may shine upon your face too.   God isn't only here for us when we are in trouble, he is also sharing in all of the joy that you posses.

But, you do need to look to God for help when you need it. He is a comforting and mighty God, and he wants you to come to him for help. He wants to comfort you in is strong arms and make you feel as if you are loved.

You may be thinking "God?" "What in the world does he have to do with it? If he really cared, he would not of caused this terrible thing to happen to me. I would not be in tears all day long.  No I would be very happy. If God is so good to his children, then why am I not happy?!"

THAT, my dear friends is not the way to be.  God DOES care about you. So much so, that he died on the cross for your sins. So why would he give up on you now? God isn't a quitter. He loves you, so very much so, and is with you through every trial, every temptation, every heartache.

God hasn't abandoned you. Just because you feel lost, doesn't meant that he is not here.  For you know something? He has been there right by your side the whole time, you just didn't realize it. You know why? Because you didn't care. You didn't look to him for help. You were so busy being mad at God for all of your grief, that you forgot that he cares for you.  That he is ready to help you in all times of need.

Every single thing happens for a reason. When you wonder why God caused that to happen to you, did you know that it was for a reason? If not, then I have news for you--it was!  I have heard many a times through my life that if all days were perfectly wonderful, it wouldn't be a life at all.  That it wouldn't be any fun.  There is truth in that. Besides, think upon this.  Say there is something that you want, something that you have always wanted all your life, but you are just waiting on God to fulfill that dream.  If a certain mishap through life that caused you to be unhappy for a little while didn't happen, then what you want most may not of come true.  So you see? Everything does happen for a reason. Just, right then and there you didn't realize it.  You never do until the future.

When troubles do arise, we need to look to God on high.  He is an Amazing, All powerful, glorious, wonderful God! One who can do anything or everything. One who is with you through every tribulation, every sorrow. Even through all the joy you posses. He has created everything for a reason. Does everything for a reason. And IS who he is, for a reason.   So when you are feeling lost and alone, and are wondering where to go, or who to look to? Well my answer is to you..: "Look to GOD!"  The Lord is our strength, he is our light, he is our life, our joy, our all....

I will serve you while I'm waiting....

"I am waiting for, praying for you darling, wait for me too, wait for me as I wait for you, cause I am waiting for, praying for you darling, wait for me too, wait for me as I wait for you, darling wait..."

This song "Wait for me" was written by Rebbecca St James.  It's a very wonderful song, and reminds us to wait for our future husbands, and them for us.  If you have heard the song, you know what I mean, even the verses are grand.  But it's become one of my favorites that she has actually written, and sings.

Of course after reading the chorus you may already know where I am going  from here.  Love... and waiting for you future husbands!  You may have read about waiting for your husbands on other blogs, but you can hear it again, because for one, mine may be quite different, and ALSO you hardly ever hear it anymore.  But down to the subject.  Many girls .... excuse me, MOST girls anymore, are NOT waiting for there future husbands.  No way! Who would wait when you could get a lot of boyfriends? Oh, Brother! That's dumb!  But its true, that's what is going on these days.

But let me back up a bit...  Of course every young lady is looking forward to their wedding day. I am! And to tell you the truth, it would be very odd if one wasn't.  But anymore the meaning of love is mixed up.  Its not about waiting for your husbands, they should be your first beau, your first kiss is with HIM. NOPE! Now it is boyfriend after boyfriend after boyfriend. Whew! I can't imagine having that many.  Girls are getting 50 boyfriends, marrying, then divorcing...and it goes on.  Do you think that is true love?  Marrying so many guys, and falling in love with every guy under the sun.  Do you think that is love? NO NO, NO, NO, NO!!!!!  Of course not. And I hope and pray that was your answer too.   What ever happened to first true love?? And, one guy in your life?  Hmm..?? Does anyone have an answer?

I DO! Girls are wanting SOOOOO much attention, and they don't want towait for there futures husbands, because they want A LOT of guys in their life.

Okay ladies listen up! Wouldn't it be so very WONDERFUL to fall in love for the first time? To have one man that truly loves you? ONE man that you waited all of your life for? And some day, one day, you marry him! Oh, how glorious that will be!! When you give your love and heart to ONE man someday.  That is exactly what I want for my life!  It will be a grand occasion!

Boyfriends are not everything!  They will steal your heart away, and break it one by one.  For if you are having boyfriend after boyfriend, then that means he is dropping you for someone else.  If that is the case, then he is NOT the right one for you.  The right man that God has for you would never do that. He would love you to the ends of the earth, and never ever leave you!

I have to say, I do not want to be like the rest of this world and have so many boyfriends. Nope! Even if my parents LET me go out into this world (which they wouldn't) and act like everyone else, have boyfriends, and go on dates...Well I would NOT want to do it!  Even if I was the only person in this world that was waiting, well I would still hold on.  For if you trust GOD, all things work out for good to them that love him.  And absolutely ALL things are possible with him!  Not some things, but ALL!

And not only are girls just getting boyfriends, they are also getting pregnant.  I know of some girls that are pregnant, and they are not married.  And in MOST cases, the girls get pregnant and then don't even want to marry the guy that they got pregnant with. That's even worse. Or, not only that, they get abortions.  Good grief, then WHY in the world did they even let the guys touch them?? Can anyone answer that? I am afraid I don't have an answer for this one. Girls are just being weird!(I am using the word lightly.)

Everyone listen, God intended all girls to only have one husband, not 50! (unless you remarry if your husband dies. But then still it wouldn't be 50.) But getting one after another just because you want to, and because everyone else is, is not right.

So girls, wait on your husbands, your prince charming. God will send him to you in due time, if he hasn't yet.   All cases of meeting your future husband is different.  But no matter what it is with you, remember to "Trust in the Lord, will all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your paths."

And if you ARE waiting, then I am very happy for you, and hope you continue too!

Now guys, I cannot skip you. Maybe you were hoping that I would, but NOPE, you were wrong. You are JUST as much included in this as the girls.  You guys also may be going from girlfriend to girlfriend.  That's not a way a guy should be. You need to treat them right, don't become their boyfriend if you are just going to drop them for someone else.  When you DO find the right one, love and cherish them, for that is what girls love, and that is what the scripture teaches.  Believe me, I know what I am saying, because I AM a girl.

And if you have not found her yet, then wait for her. Don't go after other girls. Wait, just wait. For God has the perfect timing. If you haven't found her yet, then that is because it is not in God's timing.  So wait!...   Everything I said up there to the girls pertains to you gentlemen too, so you can follow it without me having to repeat myself.

Girls and boys, while you ARE waiting, serve God while doing so.  Live your life according to Gods will, and don't ruin it, just for what you want. Gods timing is perfect! And trust him!

All of you can share your story with me if you like.  If you are battling with serving God while waiting, or even having trouble waiting.  If you ARE waiting, or have waited and God has sent you your chosen one. I would be more than happy to listen.  And if you are just wanting me to see it, not the whole crowd that reads my blog, then just say so, and I won't publish the comment.

I thank everyone who has read this! I hope you are waiting and living your life according to God's will and purpose.
