We don't always understand why "bad" or hard things happen to us. Why we have to go through setbacks. Disappointments. Challenging times.
I honestly don't.
Some of us just seem to have more than our fair share of these periods of difficulty thrown at us by life. I am definitely one of those people. Nothing seems to ever be straightforward. Or easy. Always a fight. Always a challenge.
I don't know if I make it more difficult than it needs to be... Unaccepting. Over analyzing. Offering excessive resistance.
The question remains: Why does God allow it?
Struggling through an especially persistent phase of challenge, in my quest to determine it's purpose - I have come to a recent revelation: It is to show His glory.
