Michael hits on one of the most foundational truths of God: in everything taking place God is working, and not only working, but working all things for good.  AND, when we see God in all things, all things change.



DAY 286

The Parallel Universe

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

Sometimes I think that God must have a parallel universe, because it is so beyond the comprehension of man to think that in everything taking place He is working, and not only working, but working things for good! Talk about a willpower of steel. He will not stop until all things have worked together for good for those who love Him. We can begin to see the world that way, and no matter what happens ask, “How will this be for good? How can this be for good? Can God do something good with this?” When we see God in all things, all things change.

I see so many little ministries; they are the ministries of the “lesser man” in this great time and have come into being because God is causing all things for good. We praise Him, we thank Him, and we rejoice in our God. “Thank You for a will that will not bend until everything around me is for good!”

Two things jump off the page for me in addition to the clear points Michael gives us so succinctly.
1. God and His doing is beyond the comprehension of Lost Man, but we can see with the “eyes” God has given us as Believers…hallelujah!  I am grateful for Him giving me His grace to “see.”
2. Knowing what I have, and Unbelievers do not have, makes me ask God to shine the Gospel Light through to more Unbelievers.

I know two pastor friends whose churches are having Vacation Bible School this week in their respective churches.  Bro. Jimmy Bevers and the folks at Edge Baptist Church (near Hearne, Texas).  And Bro. Dee Daniels and the folks at 1st Baptist Church Timpson (Timpson, Texas).  Will you join me in praying for the kids and parents participating in these two VBS outreaches, and pray for those who do not know the Lord to come to know Him, plus praying that those who do know Him will come to grow in grace and in the knowledge of their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  Blessings!
