Scripture and a Prayer: “God is Always for Our Good”

“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” (Romans 8:28)

Prayer:

Lord, what a wonderful promise You have given, how You will work all things, both the good and the bad, for the good of Your kingdom’s purposes. But Lord, forgive me because sometimes it is hard to understand how You can bring beauty out from the ashes that I and others have made of my life. It is hard to see how You can mend the broken pieces of my life and make me whole again. Yet Your promises are true and faithful, and this I believe, but like the father of the son Jesus healed, I ask, “Help my unbelief.” Help me Lord, and through the trials that come my way, and the tribulations I go through, transform me, and make me more into the image of Your Son, Jesus Christ. AMEN
