"You are ruler of all things,
In your hands are strength and power
to exalt and give strength to all"
I Chronicles 29:12
That is true, God is ruler of all things. And we believe that by His hands He gives strength to us.
Especially as we go through things. Hard things, trying things, ultimate things.
Our greatest trials are what make us and shape us. They give us character and courage. They teach us kindness and compassion, humility and gentleness. We hopefully emerge with wisdom and discernment. And we gain relationships that are strong, and lasting.
And yet we long for God's immediate show of power. His intervention in our lives, now.
God's power always gains immediate praise and glory, but His wisdom is seen over time.
That's hard.
