There was once a man who was ship-wrecked and stranded on an island.
Everyday he prayed asking God to send someone to rescue him, but to his disappointment, no one ever came.
Months passed and this man learned how to survive on this island.
During this time, he accumulated things from the island and store them in a hut that he constructed.
One day after hunting for food he returned back to his hut, much to this dismay he saw that his hut was on fire along with everything else he owned.
All his possession were going up in smoke! The only things he had left with were the clothes on his back.
Initially he was in shock, and then he was consumed with anger and rage!
In his fury he threw of fist into the air and began cursing God and yelling.
"God, how could you let this happen to me? I have been praying everyday for months about being rescued but no one has come, and now everything that I have is on fire!
How could you do this to me? Why did you let this happen to me?"
Later the man was on his hands and knees weeping heavily.
When he happened to look up and catch sight of a ship coming to his direction and as they were heading back to civilization the man asked the captain, "How were you able to find me?"
Captain responded, "We were voyaging across the ocean when we noticed a horizon column of a smoke going up. We decided to go check it up and when we did, that's when we found you.!"
In life, we were going to be confronted with challenges, problem and disasters.
But keep in mind that what the devil has meant for bad, God can transform into your good!
What is a catastrophe can sometimes be a blessing in disguise.
"The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears, and delivers them out of all trouble.
The Lord is near to those who have broken heart, and saves such as have a contrite spirit. Many are the affliction of righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all."
