Too often things come into our lives and cause discomfort. We
rehearse over and over in our minds why this is happening, or what’s going on
when the Bible instructs us to not lean to our own understanding, just trust
God in the situation and learn from it. The Bible warns us that in this world
you will have tribulations. They come for many reasons known to God.
The Huffington Post wrote an article about Toni Braxton, citing statements from her
new book “Unbreak My Heart” in which she opens up about her life, her family,
and her past. One statement she shared concerning her past received a lot of
attention in which she voiced that she once believed God gave her son autism
because of a past abortion. In other words, she once believed her son’s
condition is because of her past sin. Now she has a change of mind and has
found peace about it and is able to move on with her life. In her lifetime
she’s had her share of ups and downs with a lupus diagnosis, a divorce, and two
bankruptcies.The write-up did not fail to mention that she had a religious
upbringing. She has history with God.
