contentment may come when you lose the thing that you thought was necessary to fill your cup in order for your life to be full and that in reality was never meant to be there. i am learning that this season.
certain schemes of darkness used our circumstances to destroy us, but God re-engineered those same circumstances to deliver us. evil does as evil does, but God’s providence will prevail. in the short-term, it is unlikely apparent, but in the long-term, absolutely so. Joseph’s brothers did the unthinkable and sold him into slavery out of envy, and decades later, Joseph would save Israel from famine.
I see how everyone has their unique set of challenges in this world. whether broken hearts, shattered dreams, death or disease-but God is in the business of redeeming us from the pit.
May He be our chosen portion who holds our lot.
And the lines have fallen in pleasant places.
