NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT GOD'S WILL, ESPECIALLY TO HIS CHILD WHOM HE LOVES!
Nothing "bad" happens to a Christian without some spiritual cause! It's always for a good reason, to teach us something or because of our own sins, faults, mistakes, neglects or disobediences! The Lord is in control! Nothing happens without His permission--or OUR permission! Sometimes we get OURSELVES into trouble through our own carelessness or prayerlessness! The Lord does everything for a good reason. He says, "ALL things come of God," & "ALL things work together for good to them that love the Lord." (2Cor.5:18; Rom.8:28) He's trying to train, discipline & chasten us to make us better. But chastenings, like Paul confesses in Hebrews 12, are sometimes inclined to discourage us & tempt us to give up instead! But about that time the Lord always comes to our rescue! "Things don't just happen to children of God, They're part of a wonderful PLAN! The troubles, reverses, the sorrows, the rod, Are strokes of the Great Sculptor's hand! Things don't just happen to children of God, The blueprint was made by His hand; He designed all the details to conform to His Son, So all things that happen are planned."

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT GOD'S WILL, ESPECIALLY TO HIS CHILD WHOM HE LOVES!

Nothing "bad" happens to a Christian without some spiritual cause! It's always for a good reason, to teach us something or because of our own sins, faults, mistakes, neglects or disobediences!

The Lord is in control! Nothing happens without His permission--or OUR permission! Sometimes we get OURSELVES into trouble through our own carelessness or prayerlessness!

The Lord does everything for a good reason. He says, "ALL things come of God," & "ALL things work together for good to them that love the Lord." (2Cor.5:18; Rom.8:28) He's trying to train, discipline & chasten us to make us better. But chastenings, like Paul confesses in Hebrews 12, are sometimes inclined to discourage us & tempt us to give up instead! But about that time the Lord always comes to our rescue!

"Things don't just happen to children of God,

They're part of a wonderful PLAN!

The troubles, reverses, the sorrows, the rod,

Are strokes of the Great Sculptor's hand!

Things don't just happen to children of God,

The blueprint was made by His hand;

He designed all the details to conform to His Son,

So all things that happen are planned."
