DAILY?READINGS: 2 Chronicles 26; Ezekiel 43; John 19:17-42

But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good…  Genesis 50:20

It is amazing how God works in His people’s lives. His dealings with us are unique and wonderful. Abraham was called out of Ur to be a pilgrim in a promised land. Joseph was sold into slavery (for the good of his family). Moses was brought back to Egypt that he might lead the children of Israel out of Egypt to the promised land. The Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus to let the children of Israel go back to Jerusalem (2 Chron. 36:22). What an amazing picture of the supremacy of our God and of His care and keeping of His people. What a God! He will work mightily in our lives too. —M. Robins

God is working His purposes out, as year succeeds to year;
God is working His purposes out, as His return draws ever near.
