With Him nothing ‘just happens’. He had planned all in advance

Even in the midst of pain, separation and disappointment, you’re still in God’s protective custody. With Him nothing ‘just happens’. He had planned all in advance and make it clear to is by showing the directions on time.

‭1 Corinthians 9:26-27 AMP‬- 26] Therefore I do not run without a definite goal; I do not flail around like one beating the air [just shadow boxing]. [27] But [like a boxer] I strictly discipline my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached [the gospel] to others, I myself will not somehow be disqualified [as unfit for service].

1 Corinthians 9:20-23 AMP‬- [20] To the Jews I became as a Jew, so that I might win Jews [for Christ]; to men under the Law, [I became] as one under the Law, though not being under the Law myself, so that I might win those who are under the Law. [21] To those who are without (outside) the Law, [I became] as one without the Law, though [I am] not without the law of God, but under the law of Christ, so that I might win those who are without law. [22] To the weak I became [as the] weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all men, so that I may by all means [in any and every way] save some [by leading them to faith in Jesus Christ]. [23] And I do all this for the sake of the gospel, so that I may share in its blessings along with you.
