Life has been so good I can't complain

I have failures, frustrations, regrets in life, and lots of bad things that I wish did not happen. But when I think of the "why's" I can't simply blame God. Behind all those negative things that I wish I could have avoided but haven't, God has taught me lessons, strengthened me, showed me that He was there all the time, and that through out all those things, He has made me a better person. Life, from a human's point of view, is sometimes tiring and not worth living, but when we analyze and think that we are loved by our Heavenly Father, then we could say that life has been so good. Have you realized that, too?

I have realized that many times, but I guess life just puts us in the mood to forget. Most especially this year, I could certainly say that life has forced me to kneel due to hopelessness. If I were asked a few months back, I would have told you that I wouldn't ever think that something good would come out from this year. However, as moments pass, problems slowly solving themselves, I have realize that indeed there's a God who would lend a helping hand before you even ask for it if I would just learn to ask and surrender everything to Him.
I guess my being independent just made things worst at times. But eventually when I realize that I can't really do anything about everything about me and that nothing really is in my control. I finally realize that life shouldn't be lived with too much drama. That there will be a solution for everything, focusing too much on problems would not make them easier but instead make us more emotionally broken that we no longer could see the silver lining in the end.
That is life for me. I wouldn't say that finally I am happy and fulfilled for I know that after all the contentment, there would be future challenges. I just hope I could face each one of them thinking that my God is greater.

Thanks for sharing! You're correct, God is greater than all our problems.

I agree to your opinion. "Focusing too much on problems would not make them easier but instead make us more emotionally broken that we no longer could see the silver lining in the end." is so correct.
