Devo: I found this devo and it opened my eyes to the tragedy in Florida about a week ago. I’m hoping our country can rally around our leaders and make some progress on making sure our children never have to feel the pain that many adults and kids have felt the last few days.
When tragedy struck our country this time last year, people were asking a lot of questions. “Why did this happen? How could God allow such a thing to occur? What good could possibly come from this?”Scripture is clear that God is both sovereign and good. You know, Romans 8:28: And we know that God causes all things to work together for good. Did you catch what it says? ”All things.” God causes all things (that’s the hard part) to work together for good.And although the emotions surrounding September 11th linger, we have gained perspective with the passing of time. We see more clearly now what we had to claim by faith then—the fact that God loves us. He has a purpose for what happens in our lives, and good will come of it. You are not a victim of chance. None of us are.Looking back, did any good come out of this tragedy? Absolutely! First, remember the amazing groundswell of unity in our country? How many times have I thought, “God, how could You ever reach this whole country? We’re so scattered and going in so many different directions.” But unified in suffering, people dropped their differences. Even the most liberal politicians said, “Whatever the President wants—we are behind him.” Incredible! A week before, who would have believed that could happen?How about our increased sensitivity to the realities of life? Did you remember that CEO on CNN? He lost 700 employees, including his brother, who worked on the 100-105th floors of Tower II. This guy ran the biggest bond-trading firm in the world, and he wept like a baby on national television—broken and groping for answers. People say, “God is a crutch.” They’re right! He’s the only One who can hold you up! Money is meaningless. Life is short. God is real. Get it?
I love music and a new song has really made me open my heart to the Lord. Here is a quote from Matt Redman’s Gracefully Broken:
Here I am, God
Arms wide open
Pouring out my life
Gracefully broken
My heart stands in awe of Your name
Your mighty love stands strong to the end
You will fulfill Your purpose for me
You won’t forsake me, You will be with me
WE are ALL broken, but as long as we open our arms to our God we will find our purpose in this life through Him!
