You never know why God chose a certain path for you, even if it doesn’t make sense or feels unfair and painful. You never know why He made you face certain battles alone or why He allowed you to lose those battles. You never know why He picked someone else for something you wanted or a dream you wished for, but you should know that what He has in store for you is always far better than anything you could have imagined.

You never know why His delays, timing, or plans didn’t align with yours, but over time, you’ll realize that you didn’t need what you wanted back then. They were juvenile wishes or dreams from an unhealed or immature version of yourself. You will change and evolve, and your dreams and passions will transform. Eventually, you will thank God that you weren’t stuck with an old dream or story that would have been wrong for you.

You never know why God distanced you from some people or removed certain people from your life. It might not make sense initially, and you may feel like you lost an irreplaceable friend, partner, or the love of your life. However, only God knows what the future holds, and perhaps this friendship or relationship would have been toxic or caused you suffering. You never know why God broke your heart or took away loved ones, but each heartbreak is meant to heal you in another way, whether through self-love, inner strength, or wisdom. Each heartbreak teaches you something valuable about yourself or your life that you wouldn’t have learned otherwise.

You never know why God tested you with the things that meant the most to you or the things you thought you couldn’t live without. But know that every time you think you lost something special, God has something extraordinary in store for you. Every time you face a blocked road or a closed door, God has an even better one wide open for you. Every time you chase someone who doesn’t love or appreciate you, God is saving you from a lifetime of pain and regret because He has someone perfect for you.

The truth is, you never know what God has in store for you. From what I’ve seen in my own life and learned when things didn’t go as planned, God had a completely different vision for my life, and now I know that what I wanted for myself would have destroyed me. You never know how many doors God will close to protect you, but you also never know how many doors He’s willing to open to bless you with things you never even dreamed of.

Sooner or later, you will realize that what God has in store for you is always better than anything you could have imagined.
