Cancer
stinks.
Relationships
fail.
People
falter.
Lies
are told.
Truth
is blurred.
Deception
happens.
Manipulation
occurs.
Loyalty
is disregarded.
‘All
things happen for a reason’ is a common saying, and while people may argue over the
details and wonder about being predestined, predetermined, and/or pre-decided, there is one truth I
can not look past:
God
can and will use all things for His glory.
“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.” Romans 8:28
Although
we may not understand why we have to tolerate an awful work environment, why
our dear friend is sick with cancer –again, why a relationship has failed us, why
a company no longer needs us, why loved ones lie to us, why people deceive and
manipulate us, why loyalty is irrelevant….if we are followers of Christ all we
have to do is ask Him to use this situation we’re in for His glory and to help
us through – and He will.
Be
reminded: God cares. God protects. God
comforts. God heals. God forgives. God loves.
"For I know the plans I have for you..." says the Lord.
