FILTERED
Today's reading: Lamentations

"Can anything happen without the Lord's permission?" Lamentations 3:37 NLT

I would venture a guess that you, like me, has not always seen eye to eye with God.

Maybe it wasn't willful disobedience, but rather a moment when what He was doing completely surprised you--and not in a good way.

You didn't understand His choices.

You didn't like His plans.

You wanted no part of the circumstances He allowed into your life.

And yet, when we consider that all things that happen are filtered through Him, His love, His great plan for His people, before it ever reaches us, there is peace.

A peace that passes all understanding.
