It Is Good

"It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn Your statutes. The law of Your mouth is better to me than thousands of coins of gold and silver." 
Psalm 119:71-72


It is good to be afflicted to learn more compassion, grace, and wisdom. 

It is good to learn more about what to say and what not to say.

It is good to grow in faith and trust in the all-powerful, mysterious, and good Most High God.

It is good not to 'know everything.' 

It is good to know that God does not work by formula, and that He cannot be put into any kind of box by any kind of person.  

It is good to learn to listen, to sympathize, to pray more and to speak less.

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