Christians know that all things come from the Lord. God is in control of every small ingredient of the happenings in his created world. We also know that everything he does is for a purpose. There is comfort in knowing that if you obey his word, that’s all you can do to affect the way life treats you. No matter what happens you can always look for the Lord in it. I don’t know why at times life seems so lonely and sad. Why are we burdened with so many problems, why isn’t the way smooth and worry free? I only know that the Lord is my rock upon which I stand when life is beating me up. I wait sometimes, not so happily to find the lesson He may want to teach me through the circumstances in my life. I accept that His will be done, His purposes be fulfilled. In the end I am a better person, learning to trust in his plan for my life and having faith that all things will come together for my good because of my love for Him. God is in control because he is GOD, because he says so in his word. So if the God of the universe in in control there is no reason to worry, in fact he calls worry a sin, because it means you do not trust Him. It is a great comfort to me to be able to trust him who is in control of all things
