Upon having my quiet time with
God, this really made my heart cry. Let me share things I thought before
starting reading it.. I asked God to talk to me, to answer my cry, to bring
peace and comfort in my life. All I prove is that He really answers prayers. I
thought I am already alone… However, I’m not. He reminded me that I am not and
will never be alone no matter what. The world may fade away, but He will never. I hope you’ll read it though it’s a little bit texty. :)
From “Our Daily Bread, September

He can be trusted.
When quoting Romans 8:28, we
often begin with the words, “All things work together for good.” But the verse
really begins like this: “We know that
all things work together for good to those who love God.” Our knowing comes by
faith. By faith we are confident that God will never disappoint us.
I read about a shipwreck. When
the sole survivor reached a small, uninhabited island, he prayed for God to
rescue him, but help didn’t come. Eventually he built a hut out of driftwood
for protection from the elements. One day he returned from scavenging for food
and found his hut in flames, the smoke rising into the sky. Angrily he cried,
“God how could You do this to me?” The next morning he was awakened by rescuers.
“How did you know I was here?” he asked. “We saw your smoke signal,” they
replied.
Pastor Lud Golz wrote, “Sometimes
God’s love almost seems like hatred because of the difficulties He allows to
come our way. The final result, however, always confirms its true nature.”
The next time it seems as if your
last hope has gone up in smoke, remember what “we know” to be true (Rom. 8:28).
When God says that all things work together for good to those who love Him, He
means all things! – Joanie Yoder
The trials we are going through
can be misunderstood unless we realize that God works all things for our good..
