Romans 8:28

I asked God the other day what He wanted me to write on my blog. About two minutes later I was rummaging in the refrigerator for something to eat. After an unsuccessful search, I closed the fridge doors and glanced at the clock above the stove. The numbers on the clock were 8:28. I thought of Romans 8:28 : "And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. " This is one my favorite Bible verses become it shows us that God is totally in control and we don't have to worry about anything. Everything will work out for good. Sometimes things don't work together how we want them to, or they don't work together in the time that we want them to. That's because we see such a small part of God's plan for our lives. But He sees the big picture. Maybe He's preparing you for something that's going to happen later on in life. So, that is what God has been showing me. I hope that you are encouraged.

I could not agree with you more, Joel! Those words in Romans are so true yet sometimes hard for us to grasp.

God Bless You!
