All Things Work Together | 8.28.2024

Romans 8v28 is the scripture that I lean on, that I cry out to. 

It took a long time to fully understand that all things work together for the good of them who love the Lord, who are called according to His purpose. 

It took some disappointments, some rejection and some setbacks. But God!!

I can look back in recent years to somethings that didn’t work out for me. And guess what? God worked it out for my good. 

In adversity, He’s provided. When rejected, God protected. When my foundation was shaken, He had pray warriors waiting for me to simply show up. 🙏🏾

I know what it feels like when things & people that you love go in different directions. It’s hard but know that God works all things together for your good. 🙌🏽 It may not feel good in that moment but watch God work!! 

Things will turn out better, better, better. 

James 3v2 - We All Stumble In Many Ways

"We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check."

‭‭James‬ ‭3‬:‭2‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Recently someone shared with me that they felt another person acted "unChrist-like". I immediately told them, "Hold on, we all fall short daily."

Just as this scripture states we all stumble in many ways. You just never know if someone is having a bad day, struggling with finances or simply trying to manage time to care for others and themselves. Life right now is difficult for so many people. 

We have to learn to grant grace and to realize that none of are perfect. Rather, we're human with complexities as we navigate the same 24 hours as everyone else.
