I had an epiphany this week as I was driving home from Harrison Harrison Hot Springs. I realized that the older I get the less concerned I am about "why" things happen in my life. I know for a fact that during my life I have spent an inordinate about of time trying to figure out "why" things were happening a certain way. "Why is God allowing this to happen?" "Why would God do that?" "Why/What is He doing???" WHY WHY WHY?????
More often then not, I never did understand the "why"? I have to admit it left me a bit (a lot) frustrated at times. I have spent too much time and energy on trying to figure out and understand what God was doing. It is enough for me now to leave the "whys" with God. I am not God, I can't even pretend to come close to understanding His wonderful and mysterious ways. I have discovered (light bulb moment!) that if I spend that time getting to know the WHO instead of the "why", the "why" becomes less important. For me, right now, its all about trust and faith - Trust that whatever He allows is for a much greater purpose than I can grasp; Faith in His inherent Goodness and Love.
Its not about the why - its all about the WHO.
