WICKED SHEPHERDS
The Reformation has never ended. It is just beginning.
God’s hand in our lives leaves no place untouched. Even that which seemingly is working against us is used by our Father to fulfill His Own good purpose in our lives.
A powerful example of this is demonstrated in the life of Joseph. His brothers had sold him into slavery. In what would appear to many as a very sad and unfortunate turn of events, Joseph saw a divine appointment: “God meant it for good.”
“But as for you, you thought evil against me; but God meant it for good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive” (Genesis 50:20).

God Meant it for Good
Do not be discouraged in your severest of trials. Trust God’s steady, unfailing hand in all that we experience – in the “good” as well as in the “evil.”
The knowledge that “God meant it for good” can settle the tired heart and bring peace to the worried mind.
The Father has a plan; He is in control.
Rest in that.
Clyde L. Pilkington, Jr.
