He Makes No Mistakes

[anna274]

from gracegems for September 2

Ps 107:7
He led them forth by the right way.


"God leads every one of His children by the right way.  He knows where and under what influences each particular life will ripen best.

One plant grows best in the sheltered valley, another by the water's edge, another on the bleak mountaintop swept by storms.  God puts every tree  and plant in the locality where the conditions of its growth exist--and does God give more thought to trees and plants, than to His own children?  He places us amid the circumstances and experiences in which our life will grow and ripen the best!

The peculiar discipline to which we are each subjected, is the discipline we especially need to bring out in us the beauties and graces of true spiritual character.  God knows what is best -- He makes no mistakes!

Romans 8:28
And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

The leads concept is brilliant. I remember hearing that the shepherds in the scripture zones around Israel actually walk in front of the sheep and the sheep follow peacefully. If they fall, the shepherd lifts them back and rescues them. He does not make them his next meal.
Then also the idea that we are individuals seems to be like in my own family I have brothers and a sister. we are of the same family but we have had different experiences. Each of us appreciates what our Heavenly Father has done and is doing for us. All of these variations promote the concept of how vast is the variety of God's capabilities.
Eph 3;10 " That there might be made known now to the principalities and the authorities in the heavenly places, through the assembly, the manifold wisdom of God."
The concept of heavenly For it was becoming to Him, because of Whom are all things and through Whom are all things,
to bring MANY SONS TO GLORY,
the author of their salvation through sufferings to make perfect, for both He Who is sanctifying and those sanctified are ALL of one, for which cause He IS NOT ASHAMED TO CALL THEM BRETHREN."

Re:  All of these variations promote the concept of how vast is the variety of God's capabilities.

Indeed!!! 

reminded me that 

the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, His eternal power and Godhead (Divine Nature) Rom 1:20

It's mind boggling...  just contemplating the huge, huge universe (at least as much as is visible to the physical eye) and then thinking about the tiniest eye of the tiniest insect causes me to sing loud praises to and of our mighty God, the Creator of this vast universe....  but His Father's heart/love is revealed by His sending His only Begotten Son while we were yet sinners to die for us so that we may live...

Have a pleasant evening... again thanks Ross... your input is always edifying, faithbuilding, anna
