He's Still Working On Me ~

Isaiah 63:9  In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.

Deuteronomy 32:10 In a desert land he found him, in a barren and howling waste. He shielded him and cared for him; he guarded him as the apple of his eye 

God sympathizes with us in every one of our trials. He always stands ready to help us.  There is a place in God that we can attain unto.  This place is our ‘Comfort Place’. This place allows that we can get so alone with Him that we feel relief even in the fury of it all.  He comforts and He supports us so much so that we do not feel the brutal force of the burden.  The situation, the burden, the trial, perhaps doesn’t move…but GOD…He is present with us.  The storm may not move and disappear, but God moves us...and we are able to stand.  In all our straits we have no distress…because of HIM.  

Exodus 33:14 The LORD replied,"My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest."

He is ever mindful of His children—their sufferings, their triumphs—He knows it all.  He feels deeply when we are afflicted and when His children cry out to Him (or, perhaps, can only whisper His name) He hastens to their aid.  God is not a cold, distant, abstract being.  He takes great interest in human affairs.  And that’s not all….somehow HE works it all out for our betterment.

He works all things for our betterment….He allows things to come our way for our learning, our spiritual growth, our growth intellecually, well, our overall maturity.  In the natural we change physically, so it must be also in everything else.  It’s a WHOLE process kinda thing.  What an all-knowing, all-wise GOD!!! 

Deuteronomy 7:7-8  The LORD did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples.  But it was because the LORD loved you and kept the oath he swore to your forefathers that he brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the land of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

“It’s All Good”…cause God is working it…He’s a’working it for my good.  :-) 

Through it all—whatever the day brings---have a great day in Jesus today!
