\u201cEventually all the pieces fall into place. Until then, laugh at the confusion, live for the moment, and know that everything happens for a reason\u2026.\u201d \u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>-unknown<\/p>\n

For anyone who is currently going through a time of uncertainty, or working hard to make something happen, or trying to figure things out\u2026so pretty much all of us\u2026this quote says it perfectly. No matter how hard things seem in this moment, the fact is that things really are going to work out. Maybe not in the way you think, or not in the way you want them to\u2026but they WILL work out exactly how they should so long as you are putting in full effort and trying your best to do things the right way.<\/p>\n

Our problem is that we are always coming from a limited set of facts. Because we aren\u2019t God we don\u2019t have all the data about everything. And the picture we might have in our head that seems amazing to us might actually be a child\u2019s sketch compared to the amazing masterpiece that God has in store for us.<\/p>\n

I truly believe that everything will work out in the end if we just do our best. But we have to trust God and we have to be willing to accept that some of areas of uncertainty might just be for our best good. When things get hard instead of asking \u201cWhy is this happening to me?\u201d we should ask \u201cWhat can I learn from this to help me?\u201d\u00a0 It may seem like a simple change in the question but it actually a massive shift in our thinking. It allows us to acknowledge that we trust God and that we believe that things are happening for our good and taking us to the exact place he wants us to be\u2026it shows we believe that everything happens for a reason that will be to our benefit in the end\u2026<\/p>\n

Have faith\u2026and don\u2019t forget to laugh at the confusion and live for the moment.<\/p>\n
