A few days ago a friend was telling me of her need to travel to Indiana to visit an elderly lady who recently had to part company with her spouse of many years. Thea related the story as follows – one morning in the hospital the elderly man woke up, rolled toward the outside of the bed, threw back the covers, and said to his faithful little wife, “I have to go. It’s time to leave now.” He instantly closed his eyes and graduated to be with the Lord!

It is so great to know that God’s grace is sufficient for all our needs, be they little everyday things or life threatening!

(Pro.18:24) “ A man [that hath] friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend [that] sticketh closer than a brother.”

(Heb.13:5) “ [Let your] conversation [be] without covetousness; [and be] content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.”

God bless you for sharing your personal and memorable times with us!

If I was one of the chosen ones something was needed to “wake me up” to bring me to the saving grace of a loving God.
So, yes, God allows bad things to happen to bring about “good ” results.
Am I bitter? not in the least!!

Often we think not; and that causes us to remain humble before our Almighty God Who knows everything, allows success as well as failure and loves us anyway. We were in the midst of that discussion when your message came through.
Thanks for keeping us focusing on Him and not on ourselves.
