All Things

 

Romans 8:28 - And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. 

Do you ever wonder why something is happening in your life? Maybe wondering why God would allow something we perceive as being bad even when we are trying to be faithful. 

It is not always God that starts these things, sometimes He allows things to happen so that He can teach you an important lesson. None of us can take one event and say, that did not work for my good as God promised. 

The key words here are “all things,” God causes “all things” to work for our good.     So even in the mistakes we make or the wrong decisions we make, God can use those to help us grow in knowledge and understanding of Him and His Word. 

Our goal as Christians is to honor and glorify God. We can do that by realizing Who He is, recognizing what He can do, and accepting the fact that He will work all things for our good.

God loves us, He wants what is best for us. He just asks us to trust and obey Him. Jesus said in John 14:15 - If ye love me, keep my commandments.
