“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to His purpose.” – Romans 8:28 AV
Consider: For something to work together for my good, surely God has to, somehow, turn it into a blessing.1 Doesn’t faith inspire an omnificent God to creatively combine things together into a blessing?2
Further Consideration: If everything becomes a blessing, is it not possible the answer to my prayers may look absolutely nothing like what I’m expecting; perhaps even looking like something that would normally be considered a curse? 3
My Prayer: God help me4 to remain focused on You and Your promises and not be distracted by my circumstances. You are omnipotent; my circumstances are not!5 Help me to remember that even if I’m walking through the valley of the shadow of death that You are with me.6
