You may not be where you want to be. You may be looking for conditions or circumstance in your life to change. Before you react or respond, you may need to ask yourself a few questions. What if the circumstances in my life are ordained by God? What if he has a plan to use me and my circumstances as a way of demonstrating his grace so that others may come to Christ or some saved may be challenged to trust him?
Instead of praying or looking for your circumstances to change, you may need to accept where you are and ask The Lord to help you to be content with it. God has never promised you a great or easy life, but he has declared that he will provide the grace that you need to live his plan and that you can find contentment in it.
Consider the following passages.
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. (II Corinthians 12:9)
Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. (Philippians 4:6)
