Is there a Reason For Everything?

January 16, 2011 — 1 Comment

Today’s post prompt on “The Daily Post at WordPress.com” was:

Do you believe everything happens for a reason? Why or why not?

My answer:

This is an interesting question.  One whose answer is generally either formed or influenced by the circumstances in our life or a predisposed and faith-based belief one holds.  For me, I believe there is a reason for everything in life – the good, the bad, and the ugly. My faith in God and the truth of His word lead me in the belief.

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

My belief is that God is God.  He is Creator and set everything in motion.  He has a plan.  His plan is for my good – which may not always be defined the way I define “good.”  I’ve written about this topic in various posts, but most recently in my Time Machine post.

Ladies and gentlemen, The Byrds…
