God Has A Good Plan For You!!
Jeremiah 29:11 "For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the LORD, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope."
In your situation, it may not seem as if God has a plan, but He has a plan, a good plan. It may not look like a good plan, but God's plan is good and it will work for your good. As difficult as it may be to understand, some tragedies reflect the long-range plan of God. We know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love Him and are according to His purpose (Rom. 8:28).
It is not possible for the finite mind of a man to know the infinite mind of God. The Bible says: Isaiah 55:8-9 "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts."
The Crucifixion looked like a great tragedy. The blood-soaked body of Jesus, the promised Messiah, hung on a Roman cross- a portrait of shame and defeat. The disciples had scattered in terror. Those who remained near the cross could only look on in abject horror. It was not possible for Mary, the mother of Jesus, to understand the full meaning of the cross. God's long-range plan that had begun in the Book of Genesis was completed when Jesus said, "It is finished!"
Many things happen in our lives for which we have no answer. No words of explanation can comfort our hearts. Many times we do not understand why God allow certain things to happen. No matter how hard we try, we cannot understand God. In those times, we must trust the will of a sovereign God and know that He is too loving to be unkind and too wise to make a mistake, even in this present circumstance. Someday we may understand. In the meantime, we must continue to trust and to believe that although the pain we feel is real, it is temporary. God indeed does have a plan in our situation.
Psalms 34:19 says, "Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth them out of them all."
You may be going through hardship in your home, but God has a plan. A good plan. The plan God has for you cannot be thwarted by your wayward spouse, the other person, an attorney or the judge. God's plan is good and He most drefinitely is in control.
