When God Allows People to Treat You Unjustly


Now God sometimes allows people to treat us unjustly. Sometimes He even allows their actions to seriously affect our careers or our futures viewed on a human plane. But God never allows people to make decisions about us that undermine His plan for us. God is for us, we are His children, He delights in us (see Zephaniah 3:17). And the Scripture says, “If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31). We can put this down as a bedrock truth: God will never allow any action against you that is not in accord with His will for you. And His will is always directed to our good.

    Hi Gregg,

    Great post. This is a timely reminder that God is faithful, no matter how things appear to us. Life can seem pretty unfair at times, but it's good to remember that all things work to God's timing and planning to His will in our lives.

    I'm attempting to start by blog up again, so I hope to be visiting more often.
    Come on over, if you get a chance.

    Take care.
