God’s Love To Us Cannot

God's Guidance Is Almost Always Step-by-step; He Does Not Show Us Our Life's Plan All At Once. Sometimes Our Anxiousness To Know The Will Of God Comes From A Desire To Peer Over God's Shoulder To See What His Plan Is. What We Need To Do Is Learn To Trust Him To Guide Us.

If We Are Going To Learn To Trust God In Adversity, We Must Believe God Will Allow Nothing To Subvert His Glory So He Will Allow Nothing To Spoil The Good He Is Working Out In Us And For Us.

Jesus Did Not Die Just To Give Us Peace And A Purpose In Life; He Died To Save Us From The Wrath Of God.

God's Grace Is Not Given To Make Us Feel Better, But To Glorify Him... Good Feelings May Come, Or They May Not, But That Is Not The Issue. The Issue Is Whether Or Not We Honor God By The Way We Respond To Our Circumstances.

From Our Limited Vantage Point, Our Lives Are Marked By An Endless Series Of Contingencies. We Frequently Find Ourselves, Instead Of Acting As We Planned, Reacting To An Unexpected Turn Of Events. We Make Plans But Are Often Forced To Change Those Plans. But There Are No Contingencies With God. Our Unexpected, Forced Change Of Plans Is A Part Of His Plan. God Is Never Surprised; Never Caught Off Guard; Never Frustrated By Unexpected Developments. God Does As He Pleases And That Which Pleases Him Is Always For His Glory And Our Good.
