Those who learn from the lessons of
life will join the others who are wise. (Proverbs 15:31 The Voice)
Things happen;
we all realize that many of those things that happen to us personally are out
of our control. We also know that the things which happen to us are not out of
God’s control. When we think about some of the good things that happen to us it
is easy to believe that God had a hand in it, but when bad things come our way
it is harder to accept that He had anything to do with it. Truth is, nothing
comes into our lives that He did not first know about. We may be surprised but
He never is.Life 101 is what I call life lessons. As long as we are alive we keep learning, or at least we should be learning. We can either learn from those things that come upon us or we can get angry about them, grieve over them, pretend like they never happened, or just try to forget them. The Bible teaches us what to do; learn from them. Some things happen because of poor choices or decisions we make; learn from them. Wise people are those who have not only gained knowledge in certain areas but know how to apply it in their lives.
God wants us
to grow spiritually and one way we do that is by learning how to see things
from His perspective. The next time something happens to you take a moment and
seek to find out what lesson God would have you learn from it.
