Grace In All Things!
"All things…for good."
Romans 8: 28
Andrew McCutchen is an outfielder playing for the
Milwaukee Brewers, whose milestones are scoring
over 1,000 career runs and 350 doubles. Along
the
way, he’s had his share of injuries, defeats, aches,
and pains.
But McCutchen is an outspoken Christian
who has learned to deal with adversity by
trusting God.
When injured a few years ago, he said, “God is using
this for good, Romans 8:28. He’s using what I’m going
through. He’s using it for His good. And I realize that.
He shows me here and there that the injury was
tough… but there’s beauty that comes out of it."
We have abundant promises of God’s guidance,
steadfast love, instruction, and protection. Best of
all, we have the
eternal promise of everlasting life.
Because we know God works all things for our
good, we can worship Him in the midst of
trials.
When we’re on the disabled list, we know He's
still able! Trust the God of Romans 8:28.
"Jesus’ love never changes.
It doesn’t matter how well I do or
how bad I do, His love for me never,
never changes and it never will."
