I just read the most beautiful article...

It is in the August 2007 issue of the PH, page 16, and is written by Sis. Teresa Baker, wife of Bishop Roland Baker.

I cannot post the entire article, but it is entitled Finding Hope in Our Hurts and begins thus (I am going to divide her paragraphs to simplify for forum reading)...

"For the child of God, everything in life must fit God's design and pattern. There is not a day that passes when God is not in control.

The writer of the Book of Hebrews wrote it so beautifully when he said that God laid the foundation of the world from the beginning and He created the heavens and the earth with His hands.

The writer also said that even though creation passes away, God will remain forever (Hebrews 1:10-12).

We can be sure that when everything fits according to God's design and pattern, our lives will not come to failure. Our understanding of success or failure is not the way God views it, because our focus is on the present and God sees the future."


This is so inspiring to me...I will post one more segment and pray that it blesses others as it has me...

"God not only created the universe, He controls the universe. Not only does God control the universe, He is in control of our lives.

That is why when we do not understand our circumstances, we must look toward heaven to find hope.

In the times of frustration and disappointment, our faith will be the pivotal point in our lives, turning us toward the purpose of God or away from His will."
