You don't miss a thing.

In a certain country, in a certain city, in a certain family at a certain time in History, YOU were born.

For many years I kept asking God Why? Why do I have to be the one going through this, why out of all my siblings was I the one that had to be born in Mexico. I struggled with this all through my high school years. Especially my senior year when everyone was showing there ID'S or applying for FASFA and I couldn't. Even sometimes I still get overwhelmed by the whole situation but I always remember the verse I came across for the first time in 2014!

"From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands." (Acts 17:26)

I wasn't random, YOU weren't random! He knew exactly where we were going to be born and what time period. God doesn't miss a thing. We were made for a unique purposed and we were placed exactly where we need to be. Sometimes we miss God's adventure designed for us because we are not paying attention or we are to busy asking Him why. One of my favorite stories in the bible is Esther, God used her to save a whole nation from being extinguished. The same way God used her, He wants to use us right were we are at in life!

If you keep quiet at a time like this, deliverance and relief for the Jews will arise from some other place, but you and your relatives will die. Who knows if perhaps you were made queen for just such a time as this?"
