One of life's unexpected curveballs

It wouldn't be the real world if we weren't thrown a curveball every once in a while that tests our faith and belief in all things happening for a reason. I do believe all things happen for a reason. What I do struggle with, however, is the timing of life's curveballs. However, it's not our plan to question His plan for each of us nor the timing of His plan. I am confident that, in the end, I will be able to look back on my life and each of the curveballs I've been thrown and say that they changed me as a person, they made me a stronger and better person, and they were worth all the stress, worry, and anxiety. It's hard to see the sun through all the rain, but we have be confident that the sun will shine again and the stress, worry, and anxiety will be things of the past. As much as I want to live in a Tyler Perry movie and have always said that, I must realize that is not the real world. I want my happy ending, a happy ending I think I deserve, but life is not like the movies. Without His curveballs, how are we going to get that happy ending?
