How God Uses Life’s Hardest Challenges to Shape Your Destiny

The most negative parts of life may just come out of the blue, carrying sorrow, disloyalty, loss and emotional drains. However, in her very touching memoir the author Macdella Acolatse demonstrates the strong truth the painful challenges are not the testament of the absence of God, but the testament of his divine moulding. Her bare testimony and spiritual meditation show how God can take even the saddest of events of life to equip people with a destiny that is much higher than they could never have dreamed of.

The story of Macdella starts with a sequence of misfortunes that stretched her to the farthest. Her life was ruined emotionally, financially, she became homeless, people rejected her, and her life was betrayed by people she had trusted her entire life. In a very touching manner, she explains how she has been lonely in certain seasons and on the verge of being overwhelmed leading to her feeling that she was forgotten by God. But in each of the chapters, the reader sees how each difficulty turned into a turning point, also meant to make her stronger, to change her character, and also to lead her to the mission God had already predetermined in her life.

The book is also one of the most interesting books which reveal that purpose is hardly found in comfort. On the contrary, adversity is a refining fire in the hands of God. The experience of Macdella shows us how loss, disappointment and sorrow reveal some of our weaknesses that we tend to conceal. These events compelled her to deal with traumatized feelings, abusive filters, and phobias within her soul that would have curtailed her fate. She states that God is never punishing when He lets us struggle, He is just changing us. Her pain was the same weapon which God had to create in order to make her stronger spiritually and more responsible.

The other aspect that comes out in the memoir is that difficulties bring out the real picture of our faith. At the darkest point of her life, Macdella wondered why God does not speak. She prayed, and prayed, but with no sense of any reply. However, there comes a point as she narrates that God was not silent: he was preparing.

The other important thing that comes out in the book is that God does hard times to get us rid of things that cannot accompany us in our destiny. Macdella went through traumatic separations and betrayals which shook her to the ground. Staff members she liked were her enemies, ridiculed her plight, or vanished at the time she was in need. It was a heartbreaking experience, but these losses put her in a position to come out as an emotionally and spiritually stronger person. She found out that certain relationships, habits and environments have to die off so as to be brought up by God. The story takes the readers through the realization that letting go is a common ingredient in the preparation of a new chapter by God.

The book also deals with the emotional prisons of fear, shame, bitterness and self-doubt that faces are likely to create. It was through these internal struggles that God was able to heal her and to reconstruct her internally. The prayer and a new faith helped Macdella to overcome the mental strongholds which were ruling her life. Her conversion demonstrates that God can use the hardship to purify the heart, renew the mind and regain identity.

The end result is that It's Not a Coincidence! gives us a message of hope: all the hardship is not in vain, all the tears are not futile, and all the difficult seasons are building the destiny that God predestined. The testimony given by Macdella shows that nothing, how devastating it may be, can abort the plan of God. Rather, the obstacles are the stepping stones on your way to spiritual maturity, emotional healing and divine purpose.

This book is not a mere memoir, but a call to the reader to place his or her plight into the perspective of faith, belief and fate. Today the book is transforming lives, inspiring hearts and reminding readers that God is constantly at work and that he works even during the hardest of situations.
