The fact that they work together according to his purpose and not necessarily ours, is a rough thing for many. By nature we are selfish and want to run or own lives, although of course God does a much better job of it, accomplishing his purposes. God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him. - Piper
Hi Sandi, All things do work together for good if we love God. Jesus, the Word of God, is the express image of God,, and He says 'If you love Me, you will keep my commands', so all things will work together for good if we act on the Word spoken to us by Him. I love the way all scripture links together. The Bible is a vocabulary that is alive to us, not just a book. It is wonderful. God bless.
