Why Me ?

Life seems so filled with uncertainty sometimes, that we forget who is in control. We forget who we are, and we ask, “Why me?”

God allows trials in our lives to mold us into who he wants us to be. This requires that we give up control of our lives to God. We can consider bad or good things happening to us , because we know that they are part of God’s plan to draw us closer to him. 

One of the miracle God worked by sending fire down from heaven to consume the altar would have been amazing enough, but God used Elijah’s water to really show his glory. Our sacrifice is much more pleasing to God because we stayed true to him while going through hard times. When things just seem to be pure chaos around us,  praise God, because he’s getting ready to show how faithful he is!

Again “Why do bad things happen?” So that God can give you a better testimony. When you call on God’s Name during the hard times in life, you can rest assured that he will see you through them. Then you can share that experience with others who are also going through bad things in their lives.

Of course, it’s important to note that, again, we don’t know God’s plans.

So, “Why me ?” The answer is, so that God can be God in your life. If something bad or good has happened to you, and you’re hurt, know that he is there and that he loves you. His love for you knows no bounds. Jesus died for your sins.  He loved you that much. After that, everything else is temporary and unimportant, and will pass away. Only God remains and he is enough.
