God works in mysterious ways. This much I know is true. He's blessed my life in countless ways, but more so than that, He is always listening to me, and trying to guide me down the right path -- despite the detours and bumps along the ways.
Without delving into the nitty gritty, on Saturday evening, as I sat in church with the rest of my family, I prayed, asking for help and guidance. And it was today that I realized that God had answered me, ever so subtly. Had I not been paying attention, I may have never recognized the message being sent to me. Ain't it funny how that happens?
I've heard many people doubt God's goodness, asking "Where was he when I needed him the most?" While I can never personally answer that question, there is no doubt in my mind that EVERYTHING happens for a reason. Many times, we look for God to give us a direct answer or solution to life's problems. But more often than not, things don't work out that way. You've got to look for the little hints and clues, grasp them, and do something with what you've got. Only then will you be able to see just how God is working in your life. And if you take away only one thing from this post, I hope it is this: Never underestimate the power of prayer.
