Esther 6:6. “So Haman came in. And the king said unto him, What shall be done unto the man who the king delighteth to honor? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honor more than to myself?”
REVERSALS. God doesn’t always allow us to see all that’s going on – If He did, we might all get too impatient. But in quietness and confidence we must remain strong –
He does have plans that are to Him quite intimate. For me to know today all God is going to do tomorrow – May sometimes be more than I could bear. Because often joy and success come following after sorrow – And in this way, He is taking every care.
It may seem like we are losing every battle in life’s war – But the just are called to live their lives by faith. Along about the time when we are sure we can take no more – God showers us with more abundant grace. Later we look back and consider all that’s done – And we can see God’s wisdom in bringing these things to pass. If it had been different who knows where we’d have gone – So, God arranged the trial and just how long it would last.
We had hoped that we would be spared some physical pain – But God had a different plan for us in mind. I am not sure even yet if in some way I had failed Him – But I know there are lessons from it I’d never find Unless I passed this way and learned God has the right To do whatever He wants that my life would be Full of experiences real that brings results so very bright- And looking back at events God’s leading I can see.
When a moment seems so bad and the normal reaction would be sad, To God’s well of living water I will flee. When I trace the way He guided me today, I know all this will make me glad. Not all He allows to be will fill my soul with glee But there is coming a day when all will be revealed. In my Lord I confidently trust, knowing that He must In His plans for me often keep some things concealed – And the outcome of the event will be more trust.
“O God my Father: today we are going to perhaps weep with those who weep. Give me I pray the wisdom to be silent or to speak as Thou dost lead. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
