All things for good

Romans 8:28 says, “We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.” How wonderful!

But let us look at the verse again. It says that all things work together for good “for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.” Just saying that everything is for my benefit without even loving God or trusting in Him is plain folly. There must have been many of us who suffer in vain because we have not loved the LORD.

If we want God to guide us, let us love Him also.

Do you love the LORD?
