Has the hand of providence been amputated?
Do we grope alone in a hostile indifferent universe?
No! We’re progressing through every unscheduled, unplanned & uninvited occurrences
From glory to glory,
Everything that happens to us & around us is a glorious eternal welcome from Jesus
We are living on the cusp where
The pain,
The sorrow &
the groaning of creation around us &
the groanings within us
will finally be no more.
The ransomed of the Lord shall return & come to Zion with singing;
everlasting joy shall be upon their heads;
they shall obtain gladness & joy,
and sorrow & sighing shall flee away

Not only that, but we shall be gloriously perfected.
The whole person—body & soul—
will be made completely new, flawless.
Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared;
but we know that when He appears we shall be like Him,
because we shall see Him as He is

filled up with all the fullness of God.
Now for us, everything is used for us to transform us
“all things that pertain to life and godliness”
