God is especially close to us when we are lying on a
sickbed. God will make the bed soft and will freshen it with His presence and
with His tender care. He makes the bed comfortable and wipes away our tears. He
ministers to us with special tenderness at such a time and reveals His great
love for us. Tell me why the gardener trims and prunes his rosebushes,
sometimes cutting away productive branches, and I will tell you why God’s
people are afflicted. God’s hand never slips. He never makes a mistake. His
every move is for our own good and for our ultimate good. Oftentimes He must
deform us and mutilate our own image. Deformity sometimes precedes conformity.
Thought for today:
Can I move in the knowledge knowing that God works in both the seen and unseen
(the good and bad)?
