No, that's not right, either.<BR/><BR/>"We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose." Better; but better still as understood by a teacher and supervisor I once had. In the hospital it isn't always clear that "all things work together for good." But he thought that by faith we could see "that <I>in</I> all things together <I>God</I> is working for the good for those who love God;" and in his view, for everybody else as well.<BR/><BR/>So, it doesn't take the pain away; and I certainly take the pain seriously. I still believe in all of it God is working to accomplish good, both for you, and for those others as well.Marshall Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02807749717320495495noreply@blogger.com
