"He performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with Him." Job 23:1414For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him. (Job 23:14).
Believing that life's experiences are HIS appointment can make a tremendous change in one's life. Interruptions, even when unreasonable, will be met with patience. Irritations will not upset us. Ill-treatment and misrepresentation will not worry us. Duties will be gladly accepted. "Overwork" will not be resented. The reason? God is seen to be over all. Nothing comes to us but by His permission.
I can afford to let Him choose, and lay my care to rest;
For well I know my loving Lord will give to me the best.
