Filtered Through His Hands by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 01/17/12

“I don’t understand what God’s doing here.”

“I don’t know what to do with my daughter. We’re just not compatible.”

“I don’t know if I can take it another month living with our bills so tight.”

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: There’s a wonderful truth that’s sometimes hard for us to grasp. That is that God doesn’t make any mistakes.

Other people sometimes may make serious mistakes that affect our lives. But God is always fulfilling His eternal purposes, and they can’t be stopped by any human failure. If we’re in Christ, our lives are in His hands, and nothing can touch us that hasn’t first been filtered through His fingers of love.

“When I look back at it, being laid off was probably just what I needed. Boy, but I sure didn’t see it then.”

Nancy: Someone has said, “God’s will is exactly what we would choose if we knew what God knows.” When we stand in eternity, we’ll see clearly what we now know only by faith: He truly has done all things well.

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss

Verse of the Day

He is despised and rejected by men, A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him; He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted. — Isaiah 53:3-4 (NKJV)
