“And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.” - Romans 8:28 (NASB)
Our selected verse is often used to comfort ourselves and others when we have experienced some crisis. Health, accident, career upheaval, marital conflict, death, or whatever we would rather avoid experiencing if we could. It is a good truth for times like these, but it is more than just for crisis times. It is a promise that we can take to heart every day as we go forth. God knows all things and the outcome of all things before all things even happen to us. He loves us and we have come to love God. We believe He has a purpose for us in all we think, say, and do. God is weaving the events of our lives into His plan. Yes indeed, His plan is good and glorious and He can take our efforts and all the things we do and encounter and experience, and weave them into that good plan He has determined for us. After all we are His because He has called us. His call is according to what He has determined for us and it is His purpose.
