I just had a premonition to post about trusting God when our world is falling apart. Hopefully it is just my mind working overtime. I have been around long enough to see how horrible events have turned out to be a blessing to Gods children. I have seen it happen in my own life. In William Cowpers poem God Moves In A Mysterious Way (below) it says Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face. God Moves In A Mysterious Way God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform; He plants His footsteps in the sea, And rides upon the storm. Deep in unfathomable mines Of never-failing skill He treasures up His bright designs, And works His sovereign will. Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take, The clouds ye so much dread Are big with mercy, and shall break In blessings on your head. Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, But trust Him for His grace; Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face. His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding every hour; The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower. Blind unbelief is sure to err, And scan his work in vain; God is His own interpreter, And He will make it plain. William Cowper And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28 New International Version (NIV)
