PATIENTLY WAITING FOR GOD'S TIME

On the news tonight, I am following this story about a young man who was born handicapped. He has no hands, yet he has everything to smile about. I, who God has blessed with everything and with all limbs, can't stop complaining about this and that. Time and again, I have failed to appreciate the gifts God has given me. 

It is not by my will that I have all this. Yes, I am going through a phase of life that I never anticipated. I never saw it coming; maybe I got too comfortable and life happened, but after tonight, I was reminded that everything happens for a reason, and God is the author of my life, and He knows why I am in this quagmire of life. 

I will not let my self to get distracted. I will take this heartbreak as a blessing. Maybe God wants me to learn something new; whatever it is, I must patiently wait and believe that all will be well. Despite the pain, I hold no grudge, and every day I pray that God's grace be upon me and those who have hurt me in the past months. 

As a child of God, I have an obligation to forgive and forget. May the world know that I am happy and patiently waiting for the manifestation of God's grace in my life. I will not question God why it had to be this way, but I know when the time is right, God will show me his face and all will be well.
