Rom. 8:28 And we know that God causes everything to work together
for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for
them. NLT
The emphasis is on
God. God causes everything to work together for our good. It is God who does
the work and everything God does is done right. God does everything perfectly
and in love. Nothing that God works out in our lives is a mistake. He has perfect
knowledge and does what is best for us. We may not see it or understand it, but
nevertheless it is true. God alone knows what we need to experience and know in
order for our lives to become all that He has planned for us to be.
God's work in us is
like pieces of a puzzle. Individually the events of life may not seem to be
good for us, but when put together with the rest of our lives, they fit
perfectly and make perfect sense. We cannot see the completed picture because
of the seemingly chaotic mess of the pieces strewn all over the place. But, God
sees the whole picture and knows where each piece goes.
These truths apply to
all who love the Lord and are living in relationship to Him. Don't let the
events of life throw you. God is in control and will complete the puzzle of
your life. When He is done putting all the pieces together, it will be a
beautiful picture indeed. Let the Lord do all He desires to do with your life
and you will be amazed at how beautiful of a person you will become. You will be
like a bride fit for a King.
