There is a season (a time appointed) for everything and a time for every delight and event or purpose under heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1 (AMP)
Before time began, God had a purpose for your life. He deposited in you the potential to fulfill the purpose that is calling to you.
You have a purpose, but this doesn’t mean that everything that happens to you in life has a purpose. God doesn’t orchestrate disease, suffering and loss in your life; these are a part of the consequences of Adam’s fall, man’s disobedience. That being said, you’ll notice that if you follow the call of God on your life, phenomenal things will take place to cause everything, good or bad, to work together.
In fact, God works everything together for good so well that sometimes it can seem like He orchestrated the painful events to happen. The truth is He doesn’t. He doesn’t dictate our decisions, but He knows ahead of time the decisions we will make. He doesn’t cause our parents to make poor decisions, yet He knew what kind of home we would be raised in. You need to know that no matter what has happened to you, God is able to make the best of a bad situation every time.
I’ve heard it said that God wastes nothing in your life. Every disappointment can be a new appointment. Every stumbling block can be a new starting point. Every tombstone can be a new stepping stone. When you walk in your purpose, even the bad things that happen will work together for your good.
Recognize that in the midst of whatever happens in your life, God is the Father to the fatherless. He’s your healer. He gives you beauty for ashes, and He has a phenomenal future in mind for you.
