Would you ever change your past?
No. Would I change that I was abused? No.Would I change that I was put up for adoption? No again. I am the person I am today because of these events. This is the story that God has allowed to be mine. We are not the only authors of our stories. God allows things that are out of our control to happen to us and I can not explain why. God cannot be fully explained. But because of these events I can sympathize with those with similar hurts and understand fears and challenges of being adopted.
Have you ever doubted Gods plan in your life?
No. In fact I prefer His choice. God picked my family and only He can pick the perfect family for us. Why? Because He created us. Therefore, He knows us best. My parents could have adopted any child, but instead our paths were brought together. This is no coincidence considering my mom didn’t even know Romania was a country. Adoption itself is a miracle and only God can give us those.

I think everyone’s story is unique and wonderful. There are challenges, of course.

I believe that everything that happens is for a reason we learn lessons to share with others that may need the advice. I believe that He loves us and knows our strengths and weaknesses even more than we do

That’s beautiful. I believe God has a plan for all of us. As far as changing the past, I believe it is what we learned on our journey that is so important to teach others.

My father dying when I was a teenager made way for a season of me relying on God like never before. Maybe I would go back and change that if I could. But since I can’t I am grateful for the good God has brought out of it – me learning to rely on God as Father in a way I never could have before, me understanding a layer of deep grief to relate to people going through difficult times, me being able to encourage people that God can handle our emotions, even if we’re made at Him. God doesn’t cause all things to happen, but He does cause all things to work together for our good when we love Him and walk in His calling on our lives (Romans 8:28.)

Lovely written! I agree with you that we cannot change our past. God knows more than we know ourselves. Only He has the perfect plan for us, I called it “Blueprint’.

For many of the heroes of Scripture – Joseph in particular comes to mind – changing the past would mean changing the great future God had planned.

Truly amazing and inspirational. Great outlook. I’m learning that God is control of my life and worrying about it or complaining isn’t going to change anything. I just have to trust in Him.

Sometimes we go through struggles in life but in the end it makes us stronger and forms who we are as a person. I would never change my past as I wouldn’t want to lose the good things.
