God has a plan or purpose for your life. This plan is as sure and detailed as His plan of salvation. His plan for you knows neither delay nor accident. It leaves nothing to chance, hence nothing can really hurt you. Yes, your feelings can be hurt, you can be shocked by the hatred of others, and can even experience terrible grief and loss. But these things that occur in your life are not without God’s permission and they’ll work together for your good. Believe and apply these facts to every circumstance of your life, surrender your plan to His plan, and you’ll develop an indomitable faith that can handle sudden setbacks and seemingly persistent hindrances. Courage! (1 Corinthians 10:13; Psalm 62:8).—Samuel Koranteng-Pipim
