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

Ever have one of those “Romans 8:28 days”? When something, out of nowhere hits and you ask God how He will use this circumstance for something good?

Referring to the last part of the scripture above, the answer to our questions are found in the following…”to those who are the called according to His purpose.”

As a child of God, you are like a tool to God. His plan for mankind involves YOU and He oftentimes will bring a situation along in your life, as part of His plan to either help others, help you or both! You might not see the inner workings of His plan from your view, but God sees what He is doing through your life. That alone should be enough for us to have faith and trust in Him, no matter what happens in our life.

Maybe your days have been filled with unexpected circumstances that make you feel out of control and zapping every ounce of your strength. Recall 2 Corinthians 12:9 “for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Just know that God will equip you for the trial at hand. Your circumstance, as painful as it seems, is part of His plan to do something great in your life and the life of others. Lean on Him, trust Him and find encouragement through the prayers of others to see you through another Romans 8:28 day. God’s plan will bless you down the road!
