Good Background

God continues to work out for good those things that seem to have only our pain as their goal. God continues to use our mistakes to shape us into more useful people for His ministry. God continues to use our friends to point out our areas of weakness so that we can edify one another in our walk together in Him. God continues to lead us to the broken so that we can strengthen their feeble knees and lift their weary arms.

We are never so low that God cannot lift us. We are never so lost that God cannot find us. We are never so depressed that God cannot comfort us. We are never so alone, that God cannot be our company. God always has our best interests at heart, even though we hurt those interests with our selfishness and high aptitude for sin. God counsels, encourages, rebukes, exhorts, comforts, disciplines. God will sometimes remain silent, and in these moments we realize how much we need Him to communicate.

Are you lonely, hurt, disappointed, rejected, depressed? In all things, God works out good on your behalf. You may not see it now, but it will surely come to pass. Just prepare your thanksgiving for you will need to give Him praise once He has sorted out your mess. Or, you can give Him a downpayment of praise, as you await your deliverance. Trust Him, He is painting your future on a Good Background.
