God’s dealings with His frail children should be a constant source of wonder and encouragement to us. We look at examples in the lives of Abraham, David and Elijah where God read what was in their hearts and showed Himself a gracious and loving Father to them.
Meditation on such dealings should give God’s people great peace in believing. It is consistent with such Scripture promises as these: that He works all things together for good to them that love Him, that we can cast all our cares on Him because He cares for us and that He has plans to give His people a future and a hope.
