Life is a crazy thing. I've often wondered why certain things happen the way they do, and why some people are placed in certain circumstances... that often seem unfair or don't make sense.
People, places, and situations are not coincidence. Whether you like it or not they were meant to happen. I believe that everything happens for a reason. I am using my faith to try and understand some of the situations and challenges I have been faced with. "Why is God challenging me like this?" is a question that I have been asking myself a lot lately. God has a plan for everyone, including myself. I am on Gods timeline. Although I may not like or understand some of these challenges, ultimately I know I will get through them.
Sometimes it takes a significant event, or person, to make you open your eyes. I am thankful that finally happened for me, and even more thankful that this time I am serious about making a change.
