Facing Life's Unknowns

He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it (1 Thessalonians 5:24).

Disappointmens, unreached goals, broken relationship-some of life's inexplicable turns.
One way that God tests our faith is through allowing life's unknowns to our lives. Samuel anointed David as king over Israel after that he was forced to leave his familiy and friends and live like a common criminal on the run from a jealous and mentally impaired king.

at any point he could have proclaimed his frustration, but David went beyond bitterness and self-pity to claim the goodness of God. He realized God's ways were not the ways of the people.
All of life's unknowns are perfectly within God's sovereign control. if He has given you a promise, cling to it. He will do exactly what He said He will do.
