FRESH BREAD: You can always count on God to do for you what is consistent with His character. “For I know the thoughts I think towards you,” says the Lord. “Plans to prosper you and not to harm you.” Our heavenly Father only knows to do good and He always has the best interest of His children at heart. In Romans 8:28 we read, “ And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” So as you reflect on this year as it ends, rest assured that all that you have been through has, and is working for your good – to help shape you into the vessel of God you are meant to be. Don’t lost heart, but rejoice in the fact that it is all working for your good. Selah!
