And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28
There are many reasons why families get separated. Being separated from your family is never easy. We need our families to keep us strong when we are feeling sad or lonely. But when we are away from our families how do we overcome the grief?
There were many occasions when I was separated from my family. I had to be away so many times so I could better myself, to work and go to school at a young age, at 9 years old.There were times when I simply don’t have any communication with my family for a year. The sadness and grief that I felt were so overwhelming. I could not focus on my studies and work for a while, the longing to see my family were so intense that I felt like I could not go on.
I had to put my trust in God and realized that there was a reason and purpose. I did my best to looked at the good side of my situation. I focused my mind to think of the purpose and plans that God has for me. And God did work all things together for my good and I know He will for you also.
