Finding Purpose In Your Pain: Moving From Tragedy To Triumph

For I know the plans I have for you," says the LORD. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope." NLT (Jeremiah 29:11). This does not mean that life will be easy, in fact living in your purpose can be exactly the opposite. Filled with pain and struggles and doing things that you don't want to do, but there is purpose in your pain. Just as our DNA and our fingerprints are unique to each one of us, we are also unique beings when it comes to our journey, purpose, and destiny. God has a specific plan and purpose for each one of us. Our life, circumstances, physical features, and personality have all been put in place for us to fulfill our purpose. God is intentional and makes no mistakes. Romans 8:28 says "And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them." NLT Unfortunately, we often lose sight of this and become frustrated when life happens. The struggles, hardships, loses, and pain we experience begin to weigh us down. We lose hope and want to throw in the towel, but it is when we are at our weakest that God does his best work. It is often through the trials and tribulations that we begin to walk in our purpose. These situations build character and strength, but more importantly it builds our Faith. When we develop a relationship with our Father and seek his will in our lives we will find ourselves walking in our purpose.
