God doesn't miss a thing...

       God doesn't miss a thing... Even when we think God doesn't see or even care, HE DOES! People may ask: "How could God allow this or that to happen; doesn't He see, doesn't He care?" Yes He does. Bu He has given us the power of choice and our choices always carry rewards or consequences. Unfortunately, bad things do sometimes happen to good people. Yet, I believe that with God nothing happens by accident, even bad things. When you are a child of His, His Word is clear concerning you: All things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28 NKJV). "All" means "all"; it does not mean some things, or only the good things, or only the bad things, it means "all" things both good, bad and in between. Everything that happens to us is for our good, to mold us, to shape us, to bring us into our destiny. We may not like the bad things but guess what? We need them! They teach us forgiveness, love, patience. They develop in us the fruit of the Spirit. Imagine if everything was going good! One, we would not need God and two, we would not grow or develop fully. So we need even the unpleasant, negative things to help us to be all God wants us to be. So, yes, even when it seems otherwise ... God doesn't miss a thing!
