(J.R. Miller, "Intimate Letters on Personal Problems" 1914)
to work together for good to those who
love GOD, to those who are called
according to HIS purpose!" Romans 8:28
We can put into the hands
of GOD all problems and
troubles, even the things which
have seemed hard and hurtful--
knowing that there is a Hand
which will so shape results as
to bring out of all the tangles--
a beautiful web. Even our faults,
our follies and our sins--
we may put into the same Hand
if we are truly penitent, and leave
them there, knowing that from
these, too, some blessing
will come to us.
It is astonishing how good GOD is
to us, and how HE takes whatever
we give HIM, even the poorest
fragments of our obediences,
even our mistakes and our sins--
and brings something helpful and
full of good for us out of them!
