God made everything to work within his purpose. I brush my horse in the spring, his hair covers the ground with a blanket of fluff, then the birds collect the hair and line their nests with it. Everything has a purpose, and everything works according to his will. A person is born with epilepsy, suddenly the parents of that person see the world in a different way and create a clinic to help other children with the same disease. A brother with depression tries to commit suicide, his family suddenly see the pain in those around them that they hadn’t noticed before, so they start a Reach Out Ministry to help others who are struggling. You don’t know why you are suffering, you don’t know why those around you are suffering, but God has a purpose, if you open up to him. You may never even see that purpose fulfilled in your lifetime, all you can do is know God makes no mistakes, and that even your pain has a purpose.

I am a young woman who grew up in British Columbia. In BC was all I ever wanted; I had my poodle (Max) and all my friends, Saturdays at the Vancouver Aquarium and Sunday afternoons at one of my favorite beaches it was paradise. But God had a different plan for my life and my dad's job landed us in Alberta and now where I remain, in small town Souris Manitoba. The transitions from paradise to prairie were difficult and I will admit that now 10 years later I still refer to home as Abbotsford BC. Through this crazy pathway trek across Canada I have had one true constant, God; and though none of it was easy, everything that has happened in my life has formed in me a true lasting friendship with the one I call Immanuel. Because no matter how far from home we are God is with us, and thanks to God I have found an almost completely over looked beauty in Manitoba. If you open your eyes you will see that God has planted wondrous things everywhere you go.
