Remember that it is the thief who comes to kill to steal and to destroy. However just as God took what was meant for evil and used it for good when Jesus was on the cross, so He takes what was meant for evil against us and uses it for good on our behalf. It's our view of Him that makes the difference. Those are blessed who do not try to direct Gods Hand, but recieve from His hand with Thanks giving.

He is Absolute, and knows what is absolutely best for me. Thanks for the reminder! You know that you are growing in the Lord when you finally figure out that He knows best!

How true that I so often look at things with how that will afect me or my comfort zone. I recently was reading in Isaiah and have found another favortie verse I would like to share with you and your readers. For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee Isaiah 41:13 In all things give thanks because GOD is there. Thank you for your thoughts.

It reminds me of another thought, Who are we "the clay" to tell God "the potter" what to do? Thank you for sharing. I am blessed to listen to the song "My Savior, My God" May God continue to use you for his glory. Aaron, what a great story with a powerful message.

Although life doesn't make sense and tragedies do happen and the young die too young in car accidents or of sudden, incurable illnesses or the old die too old after suffering dementia and prolonged illnesses, EVERYTHING is for His glory and I have to be OK with that. I'm not God's consultant on the way things should be. I just have to trust Him. With everything. I am continually amazed at God’s perfect ways.

He was one of the most humble artists I have had the pleasure of interacting with in a long time. Who someone is when they're not on a stage or behind a microphone or on an album really speaks to who they are. Aaron, thank you for sharing this blog and for reminding me that God is God and I am not. God knows what He is doing even when I don't have the answer and that's okay even if I'm "not" okay with it. I continue to appreciate you and your ministry through song. God bless you. I had the pleasure of working with Aaron for a week one summer about 2-3 years ago at a conference (Summer In The Son).
