Romans 8:28

Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose.

This scripture has come to me 3 different times in 3 weeks. #1 It first came to me as I was driving and my husband the night before had asked me about some promises of God. It took me until the next day or 2 (I am a little slow at times =) ). But this scripture came to mind. This is Gods promise to us. #2 Then sitting in Sunday Morning Church we had a missionary. Not even the Pastor it was a missionary! from another country! astonishing how God works. Anyway he was preaching and his final scripture he brings up in closing was...Romans 8:28. My eyes teared and my heart felt squeezed. I had chills up and down me. You see its been a difficult month or so and I have relied on this scripture to bring me through. God knows what we need! So after I almost fall to my knees and thank God for hearing my prayers and our needs, we go home. #3 Last week...my daughter brings me her book report to read. Its several pages long (Go Jessica) and the final question is something to do with a passage from the Bible. She has in there...you guessed it Romans 8:28. I got that feeling come over me again. I had to explain to her why this scripture meant so much. God is good. I tend to get so overwhelmed with life instances sometimes but God has a gentle reminder to let me know that no matter what happens down here on Earth...He is still King of Kings and Lord of Lords but most of all He is my faithful friend who hears my every need. He is my Heavenly Father above watching over my family and me. I thank Him for being so good to us. We are blessed.

Welcome to my blog..

I hope to inspire you with some words of encouragement. I hope to send forth positive words from my comforter... the Lord. He has been a dear friend in my travels and I want to be able to share them with anyone else that is in need. Keep Him close at all times because you are always in need of such a friend as Jesus. Even when things are going great or when it all crashes down around you. Just keep your eyes on Him.
