You were created for such a time as this.
Jeremy Camp is currently on tour after having major heart surgery. He released a new version of his song “These Days” featuring Franni Rae Cash Cain. In his song, he presents the thought that even in the bad or the good, God made you for this these days.

So remember before you listen to this song, that God created you on purpose for a purpose at this time and place on Earth.
Lyrics:
These days my heart’s always on the run
These days the world’s spinning out of control, oh
These days are fast and they’re furious
Feels like the worst is ahead of us, oh, ohSometimes it’s hard to feel at home, but
I believe that you and I
Are in the right place at the right time
God called us by name
And He doesn’t make mistakes
I know we were born to shine bright
In a dark world that needed some light
Don’t have to be afraid
Maybe we were made
For these daysWhat if the beauty isn’t crushed?
It just needs the hope that’s inside of us, oh, oh
What if it’s more than a destiny?
What if we’re part of a masterpiece? Oh, ohUntil our Father brings us home
To stand when it gets hard
To love with open arms
It’s something to embrace
Maybe we were made for these days
They always say hindsight is 20/20. But, the reason there is truth in that is because God puts us in the right place at the right time.
It’s kind of a cheesy illustration, but let’s imagine you’re climbing a mountain. The breathtaking view at the top is the destination. And the journey is rough- rocks to climb, trees everywhere, winding pathways, etc. But when you get to the top, you realize none of it would have been possible without the journey to get there.
We live in a world where bad things happen to good people. It’s hard to understand now, but one day it will all make sense. God never wants to see us hurt, and He will turn everything that comes our way for our good.
