“So don’t worry. Don’t say, ‘What will we eat?’ Or, ‘What will we drink?’ Or, ‘What will we wear?’ People who are ungodly run after all of those things. Your Father who is in heaven knows that you need them. “But put God’s kingdom first. Do what he wants you to do. Then all of those things will also be given to you.“So don’t worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. (Matthew 6:31-34)
God makes the best out of the worst situations. Can you think of a horrible time in your life when you thought you would never make it through another day . . .another hour . . .another minute? I am sure that if you cannot, your friends are able to remember. You
panicked. You
questioned everything and everyone. You
worried yourself silly . . .but you made it!
We hope for what we don’t have yet. So we are patient as we wait for it. In the same way, the Holy Spirit helps us when we are weak. We don’t know what we should pray for. But the Spirit himself prays for us. He prays with groans too deep for words. God, who looks into our hearts, knows the mind of the Spirit. And the Spirit prays for God’s people just as God wants him to pray. We will win. We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him. He appointed them to be saved in keeping with his purpose.(Romans 8:25-28)
Bad things
can and
will happen to good people . . . to God's people. Yet we place our hope in His will for our lives. We trust that God knows best for us! He has overcome the world and though Him we can overcome every circumstance. Through it all we grow to serve Him and others better!
