A Study of Romans 8:28 (Part 1)
"And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose." - Romans 8:28
Many individuals enter the Christian faith thinking that their salvation means that life will no longer be hard, unfair, and full of challenges.
But Romans 8:28 tells a different story. It says that ALL things work together for good. Not just good things. Not only open doors or positive experiences. But ALL things.
If that's so, we can't look at challenging circumstances or short-term failures as evil. Closed doors are often God's way of guiding us in the right direction.
More to come tomorrow.
God bless,
J.W.
