You ever experience some event in life and ask God why He allowed that to happen? We all have at one time or another. The experience might have been painful in the loss of a job or loved one, a horrible accident that left you or someone you love permanently disabled or maybe you suffered some form of abuse as a child or in a relationship....the list is endless. But, I can assure you God has a purpose in your moment of grief or unique situation.
So how do we know God's purpose, God's reason for allowing something to happen? By drawing closer to Him. Through intimate prayer and reading the bible, God will speak to you. He might not show you the reason for what you are experiencing right away...it might take years...but He will show you if you listen closely and lean on Him.
I have developed an understanding, through the years of my life, that God has a purpose for everything...big or small. Sometimes He keeps things hidden from us for our protection, but He still works things out for His glory and to shower down blessings on you or someone else. Your truest rewards are in Heaven...so don't always expect blessings on earth. Keep your faithful walk in obedience and your focus on Him and He will guide and use your life to work His plan for a reason and purpose. If you never find out the answer to "why" on earth, He will reveal it in Heaven.
Draw close to Him for guidance, surrender every occurrence into His loving hands and trust that He will use it for His glory and blessings to you.
