It Will All Work Out, Right?

I have said way too often that “things will work out”
Actually, it was what I told myself or someone else to create hope that things will work out (the way we hoped they would)
Confusingly, some of these “things” worked out completely opposite of the way I hoped they would.
I am now beginning to understand that things work for the good of those that love the LORD and are called according to HIS purpose. (Romans 8:28)
HIS purpose may not always look to be exactly what I imagine. As a matter of fact, some look completely opposite.
However, walking with GOD is accepting that I won’t always get it. And I will have to let go of my own ideas of how things should be.
Going through some of the most dire of times in my life, I couldn’t see the nose in front of my face, let alone that my situation will work out and GOD is carrying me. Further... GOD has plans to help me and not to harm me.
When time passes and I look back, I scratch my head in astonishment that things not only worked out but even better than I could have imagined.
I just had to wait.. keep my hope in the LORD and my eyes off of the circumstances amen!
#ThankYOUJESUS ​
