There is a reason

1. To every thing there is a season and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2. A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3. A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4. A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5. A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6. A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7. A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8. A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
(ECCLESIASTES 3: 1-8)

I'm a firm believer that for everything that happens, there is a reason for it. Sometimes that's what gets me through the day, just remembering that Heavenly Father knows what He's doing and why He's doing it. People may think this is a childish way of thinking about problems that are completely logical for why they occurred, but in reality everything DOES happen for a reason, even if we can't see why. When things get rough, just remember you big Daddy-o up in Heaven knows what is going on and has the everything under control, so there isn't a need to get your undies in a wad. :)
