God's Protection

I realized something the other day and I’ve been meaning to post this
But you know how it is when you go back to work. You have no time.
I have come to believe that sometimes God keeps things from us to protect us.
When I started my new job it was 6 months to the day that I lost my last job.
I was told I could draw unemployment up to a year. I filed one more time on
Umemployment because it was going to be a few weeks before I got paid. What
I didn’t know was I had exhausted my benefits one week before I was to receive
My first check. If I had known my unemployment was getting ready to run out I would
Have started worrying and flipping out. But God kept that from me and I didn’t loose
Peace of mind. I’m thankful God does those things for us. There may be times when
We wonder what God is up to and why certain things happen or don’t happen. But
God can see what may not be good about the situation and he protects us from it.
I once knew a girl who was a wonderful young Christian girl. She was around 25 years
Old. Her fiancée was a missionary in a foreign country and she would join him when
He came out to get married. She had a wreck but she seemed to be ok. The hospital
Cleared her but within a week a hidden blood clot made its way to her brain. They said
She would never wake up. It was such a tragedy and everyone grieved. So many people
Who knew her asked why God could let this happen to one of his most devoted servants.
I’ll never forget what my husband said when I told him this. He said we will never know the
Reason but it may be that God loved her so much he was sparing her life from something so
Awful that she would have to endure. I know she is in a better place and I’m glad that she
Never had to suffer the things we suffer here on earth. So the next time you find yourself
Wondering why things do or do not happen just take consolation that God knows things you
Don’t and he may be protecting you from something you don’t need to be involved in.
