Not everything has to happen…but some things do

Not everything has to happen…but some things do
Some things have to happen…
To see those that we can’t…
Those people, places and things…
What’s really in them…
What they are really made of
The best in some…and not so much in others
Some things have to happen…
Because if they didn’t…
We would never know…
Or may refuse to believe the reality that our eyes, ears…
And even common sense…
Tell us over and over again
Some things have to happen…
For us to believe what see…and that that we don’t
Why did this have to happen…we may ask…
What if it didn’t…I believe is a better question…
The scales would still be on some eyes
Some hearts only feel what happens to it or those connected to it
So, if some things didn’t happen…
Some hearts would never change from stone to flesh
Some minds would never switch from closed to open
Some hands would never release the grip of a fist…to an open palm
Not everything has to happen…but some things do
We may not have known…but now we know
Now what??
If it was a negative…turn it into a positive
If it was a positive already…add to it
If it had to happen…may it be used for our growth and God’s Glory!!
