Good Will Come

Devotion:

(A Haiku Poem)

God never allows
Anything to affect us
That will not bring good.

All that will happen
Will be for our good
Filtered through God's grace.

For us, His children,
Our God orchestrates events,
Or filters each one,

To ultimately
Bring us closer to Himself
And grant us blessing.

When events are tough,
Trust Him to bring good for you;
Our God will not fail.

There is a divine
Purpose for everything
God allows in life.

Bible Reading:

"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"

"(Habakkuk's Complaint)...How long, O Lord, must I call for help, but You do not listen?...Why do You tolerate wrong? Destruction and violence are before me; there is strife, and conflict abounds...(The Lord answers)...The earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord...the Lord is in His holy temple; let all the earth be silent before Him...(Habakkuk's Prayer)...Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior. The Sovereign Lord is my strength... Habakkuk 1 - 3"
