Romans 12:2 (NIV)
2 Do not conform to the pattern of this
world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will
be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and
perfect will.
God has a plan for the life of every Christian. Every
circumstance, every turn of destiny, is for your good. It is working together
for completeness. His plan for you is being perfected. All things working
together for your good and for His glory. As a young Christian, Ruth, my wife,
wanted to be a missionary, as were her father and mother. But God had other
plans for her life. Changing circumstances revealed God’s will to her, and she
was happy where God had placed her. So many of us ask God to change the
circumstances to suit our desires, instead of us conforming our wills to His.
Don’t let circumstances distress you. Rather, look for the will of God for your
life to be revealed in and through those circumstances.
Thought for today:
Do I KNOW the truth in Romans 8:28 (all things work together for my good)?
