There are many events in my life, past and present that I do not understand. I am sure there will be many more down the road. I question God during these times. I have sometimes ask Him, "Why this?" And that is alright. God wants us to pour out to Him whatever is on our hearts. My attitude toward these events has changed as I have grown in my faith. While I still ask why, I find myself asking more and more often the next question, "What now, God? Looking back, I now see how God was teaching me and molding me more into His image and His plan. In the heat of the battle or in the midst of struggle, it is very difficult to step back and ask, "Okay God, you have me here in this trial. What are you wanting me to learn?" If you can step back and ask what, instead of continuing to ask why, it will help you move forward as you deal with the struggle. Like David said in of the Psalm, our hope is in God. God does not give us trials without a purpose. When God gives us a test, He is pulling for us. He wants us to grow and learn from the test. God is on your side! Get up each morning and ask, What are You teaching me today, Lord?
