God’s love

​“If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten?” (Hebrews 12:7)

It did cross my mind when I read the headlines, “Why did God allow this to happen?” Some will bring foolish charges against his love. “How can he be a God of love if he permits me to suffer so?” You forget that word— “As many as I tenderly love” (for that is the Greek word), “I rebuke and chasten.” The more the Lord loves you, the more surely he will rebuke any and every evil that he sees in you. You are so precious to him, that he desires to make you perfect in every good work to do his will. (Charles Spurgeon)

God is in control of our circumstances. Nothing goes unnoticed. We may be tried in the fire, tried on every hand, but if we keep our eyes on God we shall come out pure as gold.

Dear Lord, help us to see the wonders of your love in our lives at every turn. Our God loves us.
