This scripture is one of my most quoteable ones. I use it so often, because it has a way of applying truth to our situations. I do not believe in coincidences. I believe there is purpose in all things. It also helped me with the death of my son. It allowed me to bring my feeling of being cheated to a place of gratitude. If this verse it true. My Jacob, was never supposed to grow up. He lived his life. His life was full and complete. I, then, became grateful for being his mom. I still grieve my loss, I do not grieve every mile stone.
