A Christian sister Vivian lost her husband of five month cancer and she asked God the question "WHY? WHY GOD?"But she was shocked when the answer came back to her. "Daugther ,I dont want you to know why.I want you to walk by faith.Just keep trusting me and as l turn that scar to star in your story."
Oh ,what a God!Trust is ,as a child of God ,you walk by faith and faith alone.If you knew exactly why God does what He does,then your faith would be useless and you would be walking with Him only by sight and never by faith.
Dear child of God ,God plan is to turn every SCAR in your life into a STAR.He want to turn every hurt into a HALO.He want to turn that problem or past setback to stepping stones.Problems (SCARS) are as normal to life as the air you breathe.Trust is,without them ,you are abnormal.It is in the process of solving problem that your real gifts ,talents,and calling are revealed.
All of us have ,SCARS,memories from our unhappy past.Scars are ugly ,and they stick on year after year.Some refuse to go away even after some major plastic surgery.Our SCARS tell how strong we are ,for having to wade through those horrible times that may be meant for someone else.
You may cover SCARS on your face or body ,but that is no way to cover scar in your heart.These SCARS either make you or break you.Let the SCARS be your experience .Let them be our guiding stars!One retired Nurse, blind in one eye ,offered to donate her healthy eye for research.Can you beat that?
Oh I remember ,Stella Joyce of Stella studios now:"When life hands you a box of negetive ,develop them."The fact that you have problem show that you are dangerous to the devil.He reads your star and once he can guess that your destiny is great,he keeps attacking!But to his SHAME, God will turn what was meant for bad ,to your good.
Success is not measured by what a man accomplishes,but by the opposition he encountered and the courage he maintained in his struggle against opposition.Determine never to give up!REFUSE TO TURN THAT SCAR TO A SORE! Stop scratching Scar!For example ,instead of crying ,start a children club if you don't have children yet.Femi Kuti today,is an international anti-AIDS campaigner because his Father ,Fela Anikulapo Kuti, died of AIDS.
DO a study on my area of your life where you messed up in the past or where you are experiencing pain / delay presently and help your generation to win over it!.Success is going from failure to failure till you win.Turn that scar to a shining star for all.

As christians our walk should be a walk of faith and not by sight as the bible says. We shouldn't focus on our worse past but should move forward and forget the past. Thanks for this message @odsam2

Thanks @dwayne16 ,Hope you are good
Wow,what an inspiration this morning @odsam,this is lovely,yes we walk by faith and not by sight,irrespective of the challenge we must hold on to the word of God and keep trusting him,that problems are lying vanities and have no foundation,we must look at Christ all the time,2 Corinthians 3:18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the LORD.James 1:2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 1:3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. 1:4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
We are always confident and we know that while we are in the body, we are absent from the Lord, because, because we walk from then on, we live by faith, not by sight.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God, and without faith no one can see God
