“You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good. He brought me to this position so I could save the lives of many people.”
Genesis 50:20 NLT https://bible.com/bible/116/gen.50.20.NLT
How many circumstances in your life have been puzzling and crippling? You want the pain to end, but it keeps hanging over your head like a dark cloud. The text today indicates that although this may be your temporary station, there is another train coming. It is in the waiting crucible that God is rearranging things for our good. How many BUT GOD moments have you come to realize in your life?
But God gave me a platform to share my faith when I was battling cancer…
But God allowed my divorce to draw me closer in my dependence on Him…
But God used my time in jail to help troubled youth avoid that path in life…
But God provided for my family during the pandemic…
But God allowed me to be single to encourage other singles…
But God used my layoff to create a deeper dependence on Him….…
If we could see from God’s perspective, I believe it would change the focus of our waiting period. My late wife used to tell
My son, patience is waiting with a happy heart! Let’s pray we find the “happy” in our waiting and we will have another But God moment! (Be a witness)
WOW!!! On point just for me. Thank you!!!
