Perhaps for the same reason he sent the little <A HREF="http://awolfadventure.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">forest sprite Sky;</A> (a woman with a heart as big as a mountain) to bless my heart with her wisdom, and great compassion. Without Sky there would not have been a path, no way for me to share God's love with you.<BR/><BR/>We are gathered here today because we believe in God. I fear, however, that while we find it easy to believe in God, many of you find it very difficult to believe God. That is, you believe in a God who is out there somewhere, but you are not sure what He is doing or whether He has any interest or control over your life in the present.<BR/><BR/>We shall soon see that the God has not left anything to chance or fate. Not even the will of sinful human beings can thwart God's purposes. God is in control, and the implications of this is spelled out for us in Romans 8:28,"God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God".<BR/><BR/>There are two things we should notice. First of all, I want you to notice that all things work together for good because God causes them to. Many people use the phrase, 'It will all work out' as if they believed that the laws of fate would always magically end up in our favour. No, the reason we are to believe that all things are working for our good is because we trust in an all-powerful God to make that happen.<BR/><BR/><BR/>The second thing we should notice here is that Paul does not call "all things" good. Paul does not say that 'God causes only good things to happen to those who love God'. Paul concedes, and he knows first hand, that God allows bad things to happen to us. This might cause us to question God or to despair except for the fact that we have a promise: "God causes all things", even bad things, "to work together for good to those who love God". And as we turn to the life of Abraham we will see this promise at work.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.reformedtheology.ca/gen12_22.htm" REL="nofollow">The Reverend Bryn MacPhail:</A>Walthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13729069480739750609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6552008888898972530.post-36240368396344471632008-10-03T04:50:00.000-04:002008-10-03T04:50:00.000-04:00Seek God first, and he will give you what you need...Seek God first, and he will give you what you need.
