Trust God in all situations
Today's word: Romans 8:18-23, 28
18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope; 21 because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now. 23 Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.
28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
How about you?
Is it hard to be patient when you're not feeling well? When you have to go to a new school? When things just aren't going well? Perhaps God wants to teach you something, or to allow you to be an example of His Grace. Maybe He wants to cleanse you of some sin in your life, or protect you from an even greater danger in the future. Whatever His purposes are, you will find peace and joy when you fully submit to Him. He knows best!

Yes, God is in control all the time. Keep our faith growing strong and our trust intact as our
heavenly Father knows best what is for us.
Cast away all your doubts as everything will turn out fine in the end. [remember, if it is not, it has yet to come to pass. God is faithful and just]
