God Always Has A Plan

Contributed by Terry Frazier on Feb 1, 2013

Christians need to learn to look at all the circumstances in our lives, the good and what we consider to be bad circumstances and look at these circumstances the way God does. We need to remember that God uses all of our circumstances to teach us things!
