Good From The Bad
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
Romans 8: 28
My daughter asked me, several times, why do we make mistakes? I told her this world is not perfect. Then she asked, why not, God is perfect, why can’t He make us perfect? I had to think about that for a while, and my answer was because God gave us free will – if we’re perfect then we’ll all be robots. Just something manufactured. Not something we willingly give to God, such as our love and devotion.
With that said, living in this un-perfect world means I’ll have difficulties. I can’t escape it. However, God made it clear that He’ll be with me. He’ll suffer with me. He wants to see me grow in character and show my true devotion.
I will give thanks to God, in ALL circumstances, for I know everything is for His glory!
