He has made His wonderful works to be remembered; the LORD is gracious and full of compassion. PSALM 111:4
Life brings disappointment, disease, despair and death. No one walks this journey without encountering rocky roads. Often life seems terribly unfair and inexplicable. Yesterday friends of mine lost their baby, less than 24 hours old. Why? They would have made wonderful parents, and they longed for this baby and prayed for him for years. Now he's gone and their arms are empty.
At a time like this, the most important reality is God's sovereignty. Chuck Swindoll says, "God is not almost sovereign. He is in complete control of our lives. He is good. And He is full of mercy." He sees what we can't, knows what we don't, can do the impossible and He is good. All of that, all the time. So we trust Him. In His greatest act of sovereignty and kindness to us all, He provided a Savior to forgive our sin.
