Make no mistake...(Chp 2)
A constant question on my mind is 'Why me?' Whether its the life shattering loss of a loved one or the simple annoyance of a shoelace being untied. Sometimes it's easier to understand the big things. I find myself wondering more and more, why the little things happen. The little things that shouldn't be making a difference in life, like spilling something on your shirt or getting a flat tire...why does that happen?
Chapter 2 discusses the fact of our existence being a planned precise calculation for God's purpose. God doesn't make mistakes, we're all here because we are all supposed to be here. God made us all differently, each one of us molded with love more powerful anything the imagination can fathom. Each of us God hand crafted to serve a specific one of His purposes.
I'd like to carry the concept a little further. Not only is each one of us created intentionally down to the very last detail to serve a purpose, but also, everything that happens, happens to serve a significant and important purpose as well. The untied shoelace serves a purpose, the fly that lands in your soup lands there for a reason. It seems a little extreme, but just as with a diamond where the slightest flaw brings down its value, we as Gods children are all diamonds in the rough and God works out all the flaws in his own ways to allow us to shine brightly as perfect diamonds after we're cut and polished.
God doesn't make mistakes, make no mistake about it.

Just wanted to add, not only does He know and does everything for a reason and makes no mistakes, He's also so merciful He actually explains the reasoning for His actions. He might not do it instantly, but that's only cuz He has to wait for us and prepare us to listen to Him and understand His reasoning. If God had to explain to each one of us why He does what He chooses and at the exact time that He does it, we'd never understand or accept it. He waits till we're prepared to listen and then He explains it all to us very clearly. We just have to be ready to listen. So, if you're ever confused as to why God did this, why God chose this particular path for you, all you need to do is allow Him to explain it. You allow Him by accepting it. Once you do God never hesitates to explain fully clearly and with pure love. Just have the faith that He will. And enjoy the sense of purity and comfort that God gives when He explains His actions. Just so that we don't hurt. He explains and hugs you while He's at it. He's just pure Love.
