FATHER KNOWS BEST
It seems to me that as years go by, we grow in the awareness of God’s love. We become less concerned with what others say about us and more willing to give our lives over to our heavenly Father. We learn humble submission to God’s will.
We may, of course, ask our opponents to justify their charges, or we may meet them with steadfast denial if they charge us falsely. But when we have done all we can do, the only thing left is to wait patiently until God vindicates us.
In the meantime, it’s good to look beyond the words of those who vilify us to the will of the One who loves us with infinite love. We need to say that whatever God permits is for his ultimate good in us or in others-eventhough our hearts break and we shed bitter tears.
You’re in God’s hands, no matter what others say about you. He sees your distress, and in time will repay you with good. Trust Him and Abide in His love.
Each day we learn from yesterday,
Of God’s great love and care;
And every burden we must face
He’ll surely help us bear.
It takes the storm to prove the real shelter
