Romans 8:28
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him..."
Yeah. He does.
I pouted for a while about things not going my way in life. I should have known better.
A friend recently asked me to pray for her, via text message. I responded that I would, and than quickly realized how lame I had been. I then thanked her for the reminder she was to me. She needed prayers because for the first time in a while she was totally putting her trust in God. What had I been doing this whole time??? Well, not totally trusting Him, that's for sure. Thank you April, for that humbling reminder.
I probably couldn't have planned my life any better than it is beginning to tun out. But I guess God knew that, didn't He? It doesn't matter what our plans and disappointments, or how much things change around us. Sometimes our expectations don't seem like they could possibly be met, and in the end they are truly exceeded. It's just so funny to me how God does work. And yet I wonder, why is it that I am always surprised? I should know better by now.
I guess the apostle Paul was right...
