Hurts and Hang Ups


Life is full of hurts and hang ups. We can’t predict when they’ll come or what they’ll even be. However, God promises to walk through each and every valley we come across. If we allow Him to walk with us His peace will light our way through the darkness.


Many ask why do these bad things happen to people, but we must understand the condition of our world. Everything is lost and broken. It’s this way because of the sin we committed in the garden. God gave us a choice between death and life. We chose death, and all that came with it. God does mercifully intervene in our tough situations but we must always be in submission to His will in every situation. Even if it doesn’t turn out the way we think it should.


God will work all things for our good if we let Him and His ways are higher than ours. It’s very hard for us to understand why things happen the way they do. But we must always remember to assume the best of God. He loves us very much and if anyone wants what’s best for us it’s Him.


At the end of the age God will bring justice to this world. He will destroy sin and it will cease to exist. He will wipe the tears from our eyes and our wounds will be healed. God sees you in your situation and He will make it right. You must be patient and allow God to fix it in His time and way. Even if you never see it.


God will help you through all the trials that this life will throw at you. You just have to keep walking in faith with Him.
