Thanks for That

I often told my children that no one can even look at you without God’s permission! He’s THAT Sovereign! Nor can they speak an ill word to you or hurt or harm you without His say so. And if He says so, it is because He intends to turn it around and use it for your good! So the next time you are offended or hurt…look at that person and say quietly in your heart, “thank you for that! God is going to turn that into something really good for me.” Or as Joseph said, ” You meant it for evil but God meant it for good!”

“The Sovereignty of God is the pillow upon which the child of God rests his head at night, giving perfect peace.” -Spurgeon
