How is This All Good

Romans 8:28

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

In moments of despair and pain it is truly hard to see how that can be for our good.
Sometimes we lose people and loved ones and think; how is this good?

I lost my brother so unexpectedly and I was so devastated and in shock. I couldn’t wrap my head around losing him. It was a faith shaking experience. A few days after his passing I was praying and asking God why? That was all I could utter. Why????

One day driving down the highway the Holy Spirit spoke to me. I took Him when he was ready. His heart was right. You will see him again. I know things you don’t so trust me. That was a moment that peace filled my soul and I knew my brother was with Jesus my pain wasn’t gone and there is still a missing part but I have peace.

All I know is that God always knows best. So if you’re in a place of confusion and frustration talk to Him. He listens and He answers us.

I can reflect in my own life God moving people from my life and I was so devastated and just didn’t see how that was good.
With some relationships it took a few years to see what God spared me from. God is not always protecting from the moment , sometimes that protection is down the road.
God knows things we don’t know.
The thing is God knows who will love Him and who will reject Him.
God knows that some people will bring you harm and brokenness and He has to remove them.
Sometimes there are people who bring the worst out of each other together but apart they live for God.
Trust the process when God begins the removal in your life.

Just remember that God knows better than we do.

Sometimes God even moves us from a job because it’s not the best job for us.
In those moments it is so hard to trust. I have been there and I have learned that God is always working. Walking with God is a faith walk. Faith is trusting even when you can’t see.
The Bible says without Faith it is impossible to please God.
