From Bitter to Better! GOD has a way of setting you up. He has orchestrated every scene of your life. You will have no clue whom He will use, what He will use, or how He will use the who or the what, but you will find out why when you surrender to the crushing process. For Shonda Boyd Brown, it was in her marriage of 22 years that GOD used to process her for purpose. GOD will take the wounded areas of your life and use them for your good to help others. It is through the pain of childhood trauma, molestation, rape, miscarriage, a broken relationship, sickness, abuse, abandonment, betrayal, foreclosure, bankruptcy, loss of loved ones, disappointment, divorce, separation, church hurt, and rejection that you will find yourself traumatized and wounded seemingly beyond recovery. Shonda Boyd Brown found out that every wound will have a scab that represents the "GRACE of GOD." He will cover you and protect you in the process. Every wound will eventually turn into a scar; that scar will be a reminder of the road you traveled to get to your purpose. You will forever have the memory of it but will no longer feel its pain. So, do not "ABORT THE PROCESS.'' Someone is depending on you to come out. Stay committed regardless of how ugly it gets. The Potter will remold you as if it never happened. He will reset you on a firm foundation and elevate you in the presence of your enemies, and by this, you will understand that you serve a purposeful GOD, and nothing you ever went through was wasted. It was preparation for your DIVINE DESTINY!
