"In times of trouble, say, first, God brought me here. It is by His will I am in this strait place; in THAT I will rest. Next, God will keep me here in His love, and give me grace in this trial to behave as His child. Then, God will make this trial a blessing, teaching me lessons He intends me to learn, and working in me the grace He means to bestow. And last, in HIS good timing He can bring me out again. How and when, He knows. Therefore, say, I am here by God's appointment, in His keeping, under His training, for His time." Andrew Murray
These are words to live by. Words to meditate on in the throes of deep frustration and pain. They have carried me through today.
