The Good Life

Jeremiah 29:11 (NLT)

     For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

Thank you Father that the joys of life do not depend on the circumstances of life. What a variety of experiences life brings every day. Some negative, some positive, some surprising, some intentional and all meaningful. Meaningful not for how they impact our lives but how You use them in our lives. Romans 8:28  is such a great verse of Your sovereign care for us: “…we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to His purpose.”

Father, we know that all things are not good but how reassuring and comforting to know that in all things our good is a primary concern for You. We know that You are not limited or inhibited from accomplishing Your purpose for us.  And we know that our life is never better than when we are fitting into Your will. So Father the joys of life is that we can say with King David: “ …. I am confident I will see the LORD’s goodness while I am here in the land of the living. Psalm 27:13 (NLT)

Thank you Father for the good life even when life may not seem so good. In and through Jesus Name we praise You. Amen.
