Today's Devotion-All Things for our good



Rom 8:28-30And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. 29 For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. 30 And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified. NIV

One of the undeniable fact in this life is that there are circumstances,events and situation hat are not conforming to our expectation and sometimes even beyond our understanding to comprehend why bad things happen.. But in the sight of those whose heart is filled with confidence to his Savior, we can still look up and expect something good is goingto happen inspite and dispite of anything. Why? Well, because of the following;

1. God is good- and in His goodness He cant let any bad things end bad. He can always turn it into blessing.

2. God knows best-He is not limited to our circumstances and present situation, but always look at the complete picture. That's why we can always trust Him. A certain philosopher said "We should not be afraid to entrust our unknown future to a known God".

3. God will provide the best-Sometimes the road towards what's best is always ,unpleasant to take, but like a wise and confident sailor, who crosses seas and overcomes tidal waves for he knows that in the midst of the sea are the great catch.

4. God is in control- Our life and futre never depends on what we have and will possesses or have someday. Its not based on where we live or what we reach as far as education is concern. Not even the power of hell can change what God intend to do. And in this we can be assure that as He wills so it will be. .

Every child of God can faced every challege of life as we look at it in the perspective of God and of His word. Lets seek what good is He bringing us through these unpleasent, heart breaking and even hurting moments in this life!!!

We thank you Lord, for you will bring good out of anything that this life will bring us into . . .
