It’s All For The Best...
Have you ever wondered why that deal fell through? Why that buyer walked away from that house that you thought was perfect for them? Have you ever thought about what it was that you did or didn’t do that caused that buyer or seller to choose another agent over you? Or why you and that seller just didn’t mesh?
Have you ever thought that the business decisions that you have made were just right, only to see them fall apart? Or have you ever planned your day to go in such and such a way, and yet at every turn, it just seemed as if things were not going the way they were supposed to?
Or have you ever looked at all of the events in your life and wondered, “why me”? Why am I sick? Why are my finances falling apart, or why does it seem like all hell has broken loose in my home, on my job, with my children?
Sometimes when we are in moments like these, whether it is in our personal or business lives, it is necessary to step back and look at things from another perspective. No matter how bad things may look, or how desperate they may seem, there is always a silver lining in every dark cloud. Sometimes we just have to temporarily go through those things in order to realize the purpose of God in our lives. Sometimes we need to go through those situations in order to realize that God is in control, and that everything will be alright, that no matter what, it’s all for the best.
This Week’s Scripture: Romans 8:28 (New Living Translation)
28 And we know that God causes everything to work together[a] for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.
Inspired by Loreena Yeo's God First weekly posts, I am beginning this New Year with A Needed Word, a weekly message that I hope you will find inspiring, uplifting, and useful both professionally and personally.
