"We know [with great confidence] that God [who is
deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for
good for those who love God, to those who are called according to His plan and
purpose." (Romans 8:28, AMP).
During the years
we did ministry overseas, I broke my ankle, tore my
pcl,* and got a terrible case of food poisoning.
My husband had his
wallet pick-pocketed, and
we lost a huge sum of
money.
My friend Kim had
a major accident on her way home from a trip to raise funds for her ministry to
at-risk elderly.
Corrie Ten Boom, holocaust survivor with a
life-changing message, suffered a stroke that left her unable to speak the last
5 years of her life.
After 45 years of
difficult mission work in China, Jonathan Goforth went
blind.
Steve Saint's father
was martyred when he was five and Steve suffered a serious spinal cord injury
while developing missionary equipment.
Why?
I don't
know.
But this I do know: “all things [big and small] God
works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his
purpose.”
If something in
your life doesn’t make sense, trust this promise!

Hi! I'm Gail Burton Purath. I started Bible Love Notes to give people a minute of Scriptural encouragement in their busy day.
I
don't have all the answers, but
since
I asked Christ to be my Lord and Savior in 1974, I've been learning from the
One Who has all the answers!
I'm still a sinner, a learner, a student who falls down and disappoints God at times. But it's my desire to grow closer to the Lord, day by day, minute by minute.

I
need to be challenged, encouraged, corrected and comforted, and I think you do
as well...so let's learn together about the love of God--a love that is so vast
that we will always be discovering new and wonderful things about it.
