It says, "One day she finally grasped that unexpected things were always going to happen in life. And with that she realized the only control she had was how she chose to handle them. So she made the decision to survive using courage, humor and grace. She was the queen of her own life and the choice was hers." I, too, believe everything happens for a reason, although I believe that reason almost invariably is to help me grow to be more like Christ – in love, in patience, in service, in grace, and in total rejection of evil. Obviously, He's still working on me! ;-)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5501142514186414554.post-66301326670252552742015-12-18T11:38:15.060-06:002015-12-18T11:38:15.060-06:00Ah, yes, the mysteries of life!

Sometimes life can be a hard taskmaster. And sometimes the answer evades us. Sometimes it takes a while for the reason to make itself known. IF the lesson is for us, it will be made known. It will come to you when you least expect it. That is an "Aha!" moment. <br /><br />And then again, sometimes we just have to put that experience in a box and put it up on the shelf. It may take a bit longer to understand the whys and wherefores as to what happened. I have one of those. I don't know why it happened. It shouldn't have happened. And as much as I try to forget it, there are reminders around me that bring it back in front of me to be dealt with. But for the life of me it doesn't make any sense. Sometimes I think the universe is playing a game with me.<br /><br />I hope your resolution appears.<br /><br />Janice H.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
