Most of us have experienced something that we thought was bad, but with a little time, we were able to see that it was actually good.  One of the great verses of comfort, in the Bible, is Romans 8:28, where we are told that “…God works all things together for good to them that love God and are the called according to His purpose.“  Recently, a man told me of applying for a job and not getting it.  He said that he felt very disappointed when he was not hired, because he knew that he was well qualified, and that the person who was hired didn’t see as qualified as he thought himself to be.  Knowing the Scriptures, he prayed, committing his trust to the Lord, and after what seemed to him like a long time went by, another job, a much better job,  came to his attention to which he applied and was immediately hired.

Can you see how God has turned things around in your own life?  It is exciting to trust the Lord, being confident that He will take care of you.
