Sometimes God takes certain people out of our lives so we realize, once again, that He's right there beside us, carrying us every step of the way, and has been the entire time. I think sometimes, when we don't have that person right there beside us to turn to, and there's nobody else right there, we turn to God, because He's always there. And for a time, we grow closer to Him, until the next good friend comes along, then we push God to second or third place on the turn-to-list...until those people disappear. Then we turn back to God again.
Maybe if we just turned to God first when we had a problem or question or worry, then to good friends, not the other way around, a lot of troubles could be avoided, and we might still have those friends for years down the road, not just for a little bit before God directs them down another path so we turn to Him first when we need help, instead of turning to them first. He loves it when we lean on Him and ask for His help. He loves helping His children, and He's always ready to...we just have to ask Him to.

Our Path...or His Path
Sometimes we may not understand why things happen. When hearts get broken, shattered, or crushed, God is always there, holding us up and helping us through, even when it appears nobody is there. He has a plan for each life, whether certain ones run together, next to, or away from each other, and His plan for each person's path is always the best one possible.
What He has in store for us is bigger, better, and brighter than we could ever dream, even though some days the sun just won't shine and the whole world is gloomy and we feel all alone. He's always there, and He wants the best for each of His children..even if that means making them wait a bit before they get it.
So if you're in the spot where God is saying wait a bit, just trust Him, lean on Him, soak up His immense love for you, and wait for Him to reveal His perfect plan for your life. He'll show you in His time, which is always perfect. He loves you too much to give you anything less than the best...so don't settle for less and miss out on His blessings. Trust Him. He knows what He's doing.
