Thought For Today: “Nothing is Accidental”

God is all knowing, which means that everything that occurs in our lives has passed through His hands. While we may not understand the full reasoning behind it, what we can be assured of is that God knows and has a plan.

Often, we wonder at the things that happen, but the truth, while harsh, is that left to ourselves we may not have made the best choice. But God, who is all knowing, is at work.

Consider His discipline. While we may not understand His discipline, what we do know is that God metes it out according to what is best for us.

“God disciplines us for our good, that we may share in his holiness. No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.” (Hebrews 12:10b-11)

God’s work in our lives transcends our understanding, but this we can be sure of, that He is ordering the circumstances for our good according to His knowledge.
