Psalm 94:12 (NIV)
12 Blessed is the one you discipline, Lord, the
one you teach from your law;
God sometimes allows Christians to suffer, in order that
they might learn the secret of obedience. The Psalmist said, “Before I was
afflicted, I went astray; but now have I kept thy word” (Psalm 119:67). It was
not until after great sorrow and much affliction that David learned obedience
to God.
My dear Christian friend, if you are today suffering at the
hand of God and you have asked a thousand times, “Why?” I beg of you to be
patient and quiet before God, and listen to the still, small voice. Bow under
His loving hand and recognize that above the clouds the sun is shining. God has
a purpose and design for your life, and what is happening to you is for your
good.
Thought for today: Am I willing to sit through my lessons?
