Everything happens for a reason.

I found the following excerpt:

"Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there.. to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be but when you look eyes with them, you know that every moment that you are with them, they will affect your life in some profound way. Sometimes things happen to you at the time that may seem horrible, painful and unfair, but in reflection you realise that without overcoming those obstacles you would never realised your potential, strength, will power of heart."

These last few months have been very difficult for me to go through. So many things need to be managed at work, at church and at home, which the lattest previously I didn't put too much attention on it. Things changed! Many new conditions keep coming simultaneously, which break my focus. Until now, I don't understand why these things happened to me, and wondering what exactly God is preparing me for. Sometimes I feel very discourage in seeing that I cannot manage all of the stuff altogether, there are times where I need to sacrifice one of another. The above excerpt give some comforts when it says overcoming obstacles that come into our life strectching our potential capabilities. Based on my past experiences this statement is true, but I need more faith for believing it this time.. Like the song lyrics below, can we still put our hope in God when we are in difficult situation?

When I don't see Your way
When I don't understand Your plan
However I hold Your promise
My hope is only on You

Lord I will trust in You
Lord I will trust in You
Lord I will trust in You
My heart will trust in You

Jeremiah 17:7 "But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him."

Hatiku Percaya - Edward Chen.

Saat ku tak melihat jalan-Mu
Saat ku tak mengerti rencana-Mu
Namun tetap ku pegang janji-Mu
Pengharapanku hanya pada-Mu

Hatiku percaya
Hatiku percaya
Hatiku percaya
S'lalu ku percaya

Lord I will trust in You
Lord I will trust in You
Lord I will trust in You
My heart will trust in You
