Tonight I read this week's chapter for the women's Bible study I attend. The book is called "As Silver Refined" by Kay Arthur. May these words minister to you as they have to me....
"In His love and faithfulness and righteousness He weaves the events and circumstances of our lives like silk in a tapestry. If you look only at the back side of a tapestry, you see only a tangle of threads. That often seems like all we can see in our lives - a tangle of trials. But now and then God lifts us up so we can peek over the top. 'Let Me show you what I'm doing,' He tells us, and we get a glimpse of the beautiful design He's making, in which the dark threads give dimension and needed contrast to the light.
This is our God who rules over all. This is the One who sits on the throne.
Therefore when tragedy and pain come our way, beloved, the only place to hide and rest secure is in the sovereignty of God.
Rest, beloved, rest. Your Father is in control. He will not leave His throne."
