Sometimes we make mistakes. Even when we are trying our best to make the right choices nobody could get through this life without ever going down the wrong road and hitting a dead end every once in a while. Why does God allow this to happen? Why does God let us go down the wrong roads sometimes? I love this short message by Elder Holland that gives a response to this commonly asked question. Think about your own experiences as you watch and listen to your heart so that God can help you understand why certain things happen in life
I know too that God loves us. Everything that He does is focused us giving us an opportunity to come closer to Him. Its all about love. God knows better than us what is best for us. Many times in my life I have experienced this fact. Sometimes we have to go through certain trials or learn certain lesson so that we can get to where we are meant to be and become who we are meant to become. Sometimes it is hard to understand why we have to go through certain things, but it is a beautiful thing when we just continue to trust in The Lord and see His hand work miracles in our life. He never leaves us alone. He is always by our side leading us to our own promised land. Feel free to share your own experiences on how God has led you by the hand through darkness to get to where you were meant to go. :) Have a great week!
I loved this video by Elder Holland, because it really teaches a key principle. There have been times in my life why I wonder why certain things didn't work out or why things turned out why they did, such as with dating, but in the end, realizing that as I choose to act with faith, the Lord turns our plans into what the greatest good is. Even though things may not seem to work out as we would like, I know that life works out for the best in the end.
