Vintage Gwen Chapel-For Our Good

"It'll make you feel better." 

"It's for your good."

Those are 2 phrases I have caught myself saying to Lil' Hunkie recently.  He's been sick for over a week now and when he started running a fever to the doctor we went. The poor little guy has issues with allergies and has to take heart medicine and now an antibiotic for a left ear infection.  So getting the medication down him has been one heck of a chore.  He threw a fit.  I threw a fit.  He threw a fit. I broke down and started bawling.  And my husband didn't know what was going on!

I was just worn out.

  I know and you know medicine can be beneficial.  But a 3 year old?

Not so much.

Now I dont' think God ever gets tired. But.  How many times have I thrown a fit and declared that I didn't want what was good for me, what was in my best interest? Apparently plenty or God wouldn't have brought this to my attention through a 3 year old! Ouch!

There's a reason we call Him Father. Because He knows what He's doing and has even experienced life and death on earth.  

Romans 8:28

King James Version (KJV)

 ^"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."

Be blessed this weekend!
