U-Turn

My God turns my darkness into light. – Psalm 18:28

God is masterful at bringing good from our troubling times, miserable memories, and most difficult days.  Although we may desperately want to forget, God often uses them, in time, to teach us or touch others.

• Who better to comfort a young mother mourning a miscarriage than a woman who has also lost a baby.

• A perfect prison ministry leader is the man who spent twenty years behind bars.

• It makes sense that the woman who walked alone for fourteen months while her husband endured cancer would be the one to start a non-profit that cares for cancer patients and their families.

• The teen who has won her grueling battle with an eating disorder is perfectly placed to gently steer a friend away from this well-travelled path.

• A disabled person, whose parents encouraged her to play sports, is a natural cheerleader for any athlete courageous enough to step out on the track.  She is a fantastic ambassador for the Special Olympics.  

• And the man who grew up without a father makes a great Little League coach to father-less young boys.  

What if God wants to take the hardships of your life and bless others’ hearts?  How could God use the messy or miserable moments of your life to create a vibrant “ministry”?  

God not only wants to carry you though your pain, He also desires to mold your character along the way.  He is preparing you for a great work.  Though He cares more about your character than your career choice, He might just lead you into one that surprises to you… because you are the perfect fit.

Are you ready for a U-Turn? Be radiant, right where you are, by allowing God to turn your darkness into light.
