Have you ever wondered whether your life is unfolding
by chance? Or have you ever looked back and realized
that the chapter you once wanted to erase became
the chapter that changed everything? The closed
door that protected you? The delay that prepared
you? The disappointment that redirected you?
The suffering that transformed you? At the time,
none of it made sense. Today, you wouldn't remove
a single chapter. Why? Because perhaps Someone
else was writing your story. The Bible is filled
with ordinary people living through extraordinary
circumstances. Real people, real problems, real
God. Joseph, betrayed by his own brothers. Moses,
forgotten in a wilderness. David, faithfully
serving, long before anyone knew his name. Nehemiah,
carrying a burden that would rebuild a nation.
Esther, placed in a palace for a purpose greater
than herself. Ruth, walking into a field, never
realizing she was stepping into redemption. Rahab,
whose past couldn't stop God's future. Hannah,
whose tears became the beginning of a prophet.
Paul, whose chains couldn't imprison the gospel.
Lazarus, whose delay revealed resurrection. Abraham,
walking toward a mountain, believing that somehow
the Lord would provide. And finally, Jesus Christ.
where what appeared to be history's greatest
tragedy became heaven's greatest victory. At
first glance, these seem like different stories,
different generations, different people, different
struggles. But look closer. There is only one
author, one invisible hand, one faithful God,
quietly guiding, preparing, protecting, positioning,
accomplishing His purpose through every chapter,
even the painful ones. because God's greatest
miracles are not always spectacular. Sometimes
they look like ordinary life, an unexpected conversation,
a delayed answer, a closed door, a season of
waiting, a prison, a wilderness, a field, a palace,
a cross. Nothing is random. This season explores
one of the greatest truths woven throughout the
entire scriptures, the providence of God, His
unseen hand working behind the scenes while ordinary
people faithfully live their lives, trusting
Him one step at a time. Because for those who
love God and faithfully remain in His presence,
every chapter has purpose. Every tier has meaning.
Every delay has value. Every season has an assignment.
Every act of obedience is shaping tomorrow. Perhaps
you're living in a chapter that doesn't make
sense. Perhaps you've asked, Lord, where are
you? This journey is for you. Not because it
promises that life will be easy, but because
it reveals that God is faithful. Even when heaven
seems silent, even when prayers remain unanswered,
even when the story is still unfolding, one day
you'll look back and discover He was there, guiding
every step from the very beginning. Because in
the hands of God, nothing, absolutely nothing
is ever wasted. Nothing is wasted. Living under
the providence of God, a new season from Pomoja
