Last night I had the privilege of screening a new movie that will be released in theaters on April 8th. The movie is called Soul Surfer.
It is a true story of teen surfer Bethany Hamilton, who lost her arm in a shark attack and through her faith in God overcame discouragement and defeat to become a champion surfer once again.
As I watched the movie I couldn't help but think of the "sharks" in my own life that would try to steal my joy. It is all too easy to become discouraged when my plans don't go my way. But it is during those times that I have to remember that God's ways are not my ways.
God has a wonderful plan for your life. Jeremiah 29:11 says, For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.
So do you have enough faith to trust that God knows what He is doing, even when things don't make sense?
