Facing challenges? It must be for a reason.

Life's challenges are meant to fulfill a purpose in your life. God allowed them for a reason. Goliath came to prepare David to be a king; Joseph was sold to prepare him for the great leadership position; Hanah's barrenness drove her to make that great vow that brought Samuel to existence; the man that was born blind was so in order to have God glorified through him; the early church faced persecution in order to help the gospel spread. That challenge in your life must be for a reason. Who would have known that God can save one from the lions if Daniel was not cast into the den. would you imagine that God can save one from the fire if Shedrach and co where not cast into the furnace of fire.
  Be positive because that challenge you are facing now must be for a reason. If it did not happen to me I will not believe that someone who scored 87 in UME will finally graduate with a second class upper. Neither will I know that it is still possible to get a Direct Entry admission to University with an ND without paying a dime as an up-front appreciation.
  May be you are still asking God "...why me?". You still feel your situation is the worst. May be you have considered suicide as an option. Remember if you faint in the days of adversity, then your strength is small.  Gold has to pass through the fire to be pure. The refining of crude oil needs heat; and definately God wants to bring out a better you. It is not yet the end of the story of your life rather it is just beginning. No storm can swallow the ship where lies the master of ocean and seas. Do not give up on God because he cannot give up on you.
