Sovereign Lord

"Just when I think I know what God is up to in my life, He changes directions and does something I'm not expecting. Although it's disorienting at times, I know God has a bigger and more intricate plan for me than I'll ever foresee. Each change of direction reminds me that I'll always need an attitude of waiting. I'll never arrive spiritually at a place where I can predict God's ways."

"It is not because things are good that we are to thank the Lord, but because He is good. We are not wise enough to judge things, to know whether they are really in their essence, joys or sorrows; but we always know that the Lord is good, and that His goodness makes it absolutely certain that everything He provides or permits must be good; and must therefore be something for which we would be heartily thankful, if only we could see it with His eyes."
