Have you ever looked back at a season of your life and wished you could do a few things differently?

Maybe it’s a mistake you made, a decision you’d change, or a season that just didn’t turn out the way you hoped. The good news is, God doesn’t waste any part of your story.

God really can use all of it, the wins, the mistakes, and all the lessons in between, because He promises in the Bible that He will.

Romans 8:28 reminds us that “in all things, God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.”

All things.

That doesn’t mean everything that happens is good, but it does mean God can meet you in all of it. He can use what you’ve walked through to grow you, strengthen your faith, or even help you encourage someone else down the road.

So, if there’s a part of your story you wish you could rewrite, maybe today is a good day to simply hand it back to God.

You don’t have to understand how He’ll use it, you can just trust that He’s not finished with it yet.
