Why? A question we ask of God so often yet is often not for us to know. God is omnipotent; we are not. He knows why he allows certain things to happen and not others. He sees a future we cannot see. As I was recently unemployed for 5 months, I asked, “Why?” a number of times. I had interviews that went very well, yet I did not get the job. This time God allowed me to see “why.” He has blessed me with a job that is beyond my expectations, including benefits most places can’t come close to matching. God does not always allow us to know “why,” but we can trust that he knows and whatever he is doing is in our best interest.
