If the plan that God is working all things towards in his Sovereignty is not one that is also infinitely wise, then we can never walk by faith and not by sight. But as Paul says in romans: “oh the depths and the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God!” We can walk by faith and not by sight because the one who holds the universe in his hand, also holds me in his hand and is perfect in his love and infinite in his wisdom.
How can Job say “happy is the man whom the lord corrects” unless we trust that God is using even the dark threads and deep knots to weave, in the end, a beautiful tapestry for His glory and our good?
There is nothing that God will do in your life that is for his glory, but not for your good. Conversely, there is nothing that he will do that is for your good, but not for his glory.
The Scripture teaches us that our suffering is not for nothing. “Our deepest lessons are learned from the deepest suffering.”
Gold must first pass through the fire to be pure and believers are similarly refined in the furnace of affliction. C.S. Lewis in his book The Problem of Pain says: “God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our consciences, but shouts in our pains. It is his megaphone to rouse a deaf world.”
Is there any comfort in our pain unless the god who loves us is in control?
In our suffering, God rarely explains the why of our suffering, but He details the Who behind it all.
