Romans 8:28

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Christian: here is something to cheer your heart. Whatever is in your life, whatever you are going through, God is aware of it. He knows the end from the beginning and is working all things together for your good. Everything that takes place is like the ticking of a clock which is moving toward that blessed time when we will hear, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.” Matthew 25:21. He oversees all, and is coordinating each incident, and every event in our lives for our benefit and wellbeing. No wonder Paul says, “What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?” Romans 8:31.
