On My Side

July 18th, 2015 · No Comments

Romans 8:28 (New Living Translation)

And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.

The blessings roll on and on in this sentence.

(1) God is active. God is causing things to happen all the time without end.

(2) God controls everything. “Everything” is a big word that encompasses, well, every thing.

(3) God works for the good. God is positive.

(4) God works for me as I love and praise God.

The last one means something that means much to me:

God is on my side

I feel pretty darn good about that.
