Paul writes in Ephesians 5:20 “Always give thanks for everything to our God an Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

When we commit our lives to God, he works in us, and on us, if we let Him. He is trying to make us better able to do the things He wants us to do. Some of the experiences we must go through are not pleasant, but they are necessary to become the people God wants us to be
In 1 Corinthians 2:9 Paul Writes, “However, as it is written: ‘What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived’ the things God has prepared for those who love him.”
We may realize shortly why we had the flat tire or other negative experience, but we may never know; however, we do know that God is working on us, if we let him, to become the person He wants us to be
Dear Lord, Thank you for working on us, making us better. Help us understand, and also be thankful even for the difficult things in our lives. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

Amen! Love this verse and go back to it many times.
I am older now but the Lord is still not finished with me. Amen! Who knows! Perhaps the best days of my life are just ahead and can be for anyone else who calls on the name that is above ever other name. Amen! The name of Jesus. Oh what a beautiful name.
Call on His name today. He will not forsake you. Amen!
