Bible Note: Hi! I'd like to respond to this question you asked of Ray: "When all I do reveals God by my life that all my goings and doings would be directed by Him. When that is the case will any of my goings and doings fail?" In "The Purpose Driven Life," Rick Warren observes that God is more interested in our character development than in our comfort. He uses circumstances, yes even those in which we "seem" to fail, to conform us to the image of Jesus (Romans 8:29) - yet without a spiritual understanding of what God has purposed for us, we may have a difficult time accepting or even agreeing with Romans 8:28. So, in our humanness, we struggle to see the "good" in tragedy, trials, and sorrows . . . BUT GOD - yes, keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus enables us to see what He sees and gives us an eternal perspective rather than a temporal one! Blessings my brother! t |
