He makes all things beautiful in his time

God said: "If you never felt pain, how would you know I'm a healer. If you never felt sadness, how would you know I'm a comforter?"

God hears every unspoken word, sees every unseen wound, mends every unbearable pain. Have faith and be strong.

The Lord is near to the broken hearted and saves the crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18. God will mend a broken heart if you give him all the pieces. As children bring their broken toys with tears for us to mend, I brought my broken dreams to God because He is my God. But then, instead of leaving Him in peace to work alone, I hung around and tried to help with ways that were my own. At last, I snatched them back and cried "How could you be so slow?" "My child", He said, "What could I do? You never did let go." Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Matthew 17:28.

God turns broken pieces into masterpieces! He has a reason for allowing things to happen. We may never ever understand His wisdom but we simply have to trust His will. Psalms 37.5. God's plan for us is always greater and more beautiful than ours. He makes all things beautiful in his time. Ecclesiastes 3:11.

In the end, the only reason we can stand and smile through all problems and pain is because we know we have God on our side and the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will our hearts and our minds in Christ Jesus.

Thank you dear family and friends for being there and walking us through with love and prayers. Your presence and words meant lots to us.

While we (I) aren't ready to share what exactly has happened over here, I just need to write this down and remind myself of God's promises. Please pray for extra faith, peace and joy to be with our family. May this short note also brings comfort to any of you who are going through any troubling moment. Hang on and God will make all things beautiful in his time! 


Dear God,
I thank you for all the showers of blessings and passing of hardships. I may not understand how everything will work out, but I trust you. I don't see a way, but I know you will make a way. I have faith at this very moment you are touching hearts, opening doors, and lining up the right breaks and right opportunities. God I know it is your plan, just help me through it. Things may look dark and bleak, but I have faith that my dawn is coming!
In Jesus Name. Amen.

  1. Hi Ashlyn, may the peace of Christ arbitrate in your hearts (Colossians 3:15).

    I went through a rough patch end of last year. And I'm glad the Lord our God is still here guiding me through those difficult times.

    As fellow Christian, I'll keep you and your family in prayers. Amen!
