Sometimes other people put into words things we think of, but just haven't penned. Here is a case in point from Ken Sande. His writing is always profound.

"God may not tell us everything we want to know about the painful events of life, but he has already told us all we need to know. Therefore, instead of wasting time and energy trying to figure out things that are beyond our comprehension, we need to turn our attention to the promises and instructions that God has revealed to us through Scripture. The Bible tells us that God is both sovereign and good, so we can be sure that whatever he has brought into our lives can be used to glorify him, to benefit others, and to help us to grow."

Taken from The Peacemaker: A Biblical Guide to Resolving Personal Conflict by Ken Sande, Updated Edition (Grand Rapids, Baker Books, 2003) pp. 64-65.

  • ohmygosh, Floss ... that's a message for me! I'm always trying to figure out God's plan about Anna.

    The secret things belong to God.

    We need to rest in Him.
