Life is NOT a SNAPSHOT

There's a lot of things in life that I don't understand. Sometimes, things just happens & all of a sudden your life became more complicated than it ever was. It could be a bad result in an exam, it could be a decision you have to make about starting a new relationship, it could even be the death of a loved one. 


When my dad died from heart attack so suddenly, it seemed that there was no hope for me & my family. I wasn't a Christian back then. So,I couldn't understand why it had to happen to me. As a Buddhist back then,I thought it must be karma. It must have been something my dad or me did in our past lives to deserve such fate. Now that I know the hope that I have in Jesus, I thank Him that from something so horrible that happened to me & my family He was the only one who could make something beautiful out of it. After my dad passed away, my mum had no choice but to move to another town to work. It was from there that I came to know Jesus personally. 


Sometimes we just wonder why we have to go through the things that we just come our way without invitation. There were many times where I wondered if the pain & aimlessness will ever end. It NEVER makes God happy seeing us suffer. However, God is the only one that can make something beautiful out of the mess that we are in. All we have to do is to have faith in Him & just hang on a little longer. 


Many times, I can't see the bigger picture of God's plan for me in my life. Sometimes I don't even know where God wants me to go or what He wants me to do. But one thing's for sure. Life is NOT a SNAPSHOT. It might take some time & more snapshots, but soon enough I'll be able to see the bigger picture of His plan for me. Until then, I'll trust in my Father. 

p/s: Whatever that you may be facing right now, He has a better PLAN in store for you. Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, then it's NOT THE END YET.
