BLESSED IN A MESS!!

"After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them NOT". Acts 16:7. Apparently "it's not a setback, it's a set up". Here Paul and his friends wanted to go to Bithynia, but God had bigger plans for them. Are they disappointed? Yes! But APPOINTED! It's very hard to bear the disappointments in our life. It comes in every form: broken love, broken home, job stalemates, lay offs, betrayal, sicknesses, defeats, ministry failures, cancelled trips, rebellious children, yes- even our family member's unexpectedly depart from us. But, sometimes we have to suffer and endure disappointments in order to reach higher levels. Life's experiences will teach you that "no pains- no gains, no thorns- no thrones, no cross- no crown. BLESSED IN A MESS!! Like Paul and his friends, God has a better plan for you!! YES YOU!
