If you’re like me, there was a time when everything seemed to be going just fine. Until it wasn't. I don't know what it's been for you. Maybe a divorce. Sickness. Rejection. Addiction. Abuse. Bankruptcy. Loss. Whatever it is, I know it has you asking, "Can my life ever be good again?" But what if I told you that your place of trouble is also the place where hope is found? I know it doesn't make sense but from what I've seen, it's how God does things. And that means you're not stuck – and you're not staying here. He's the One who says, "I will...transform the Valley of Trouble into a gateway of hope." (Hosea 2:15) In His hands, things are going to be more than okay. You are going to be more than fine.
