God
is especially close to us when we are lying on a sickbed. God will make
the bed soft and will freshen it with His presence and with His tender
care. He makes the bed comfortable and wipes away our tears.
He
ministers to us with special tenderness at such a time and reveals His
great love for us. Tell me why the gardener trims and prunes his
rosebushes, sometimes cutting away productive branches, and I will tell
you why God's people are afflicted. God's hand never slips. He never
makes a mistake.
His every move is for our own good and for our ultimate
good. Oftentimes He must deform us and mutilate our own image.
Deformity sometimes precedes conformity.
Daily Prayer
When times of tribulation come, help me, dear Lord, to glory in them for Your sake.
Text: II Corinthians 12:9
