Much love,
Thank you so much for this WORD reminder, Andy! I’ve found myself wondering recently about certain directions my life is taking, and why God is leading me down these paths; Romans 8:28 is a sure anchor – I may not see how, but God is causing ALL things to work together for my good – AMEN!
Hey sweet Remi! I love Romans 8:28 too. He doesn’t waste anything. He’s gone before you, and he’s leading the way. You will be in my prayers.
I read these out loud today as my husband was driving me to an appointment. This is a season where God has placed me in leadership positions and one is very demanding. I am in meeting after meeting. And there are ongoing and new personal and family issues. I needed those verses v today. Thank you and thank God I read each one out loud. It calmed me.
Maybe they were for you Patricia! Thank you for sharing. I pray you meeting went well. Much love.
Romans 8:28 has always been special to me. I claim His Promise! Yes, He is faithful. Thank you! I needed to see the words this AM. I miss our Wednesday Fellowship.
I love Romans 8:28 too, Janice! So glad these scriptures were what you needed today. We miss you too! Come back!
