God Thinking 55 - Exploration of the heart 4

"Every job you have had, every place you’ve been, every experience, every battle (won or lost), even when your back was turned, God was there, not condemning you or laughing at us, but there to take what was meant for your loss and turning it into your gain - All so that once you decide to live by faith your past will become your testimony of how God ...........

All the while, when your back was turned on God, He was carrying you through.  When you were disobedient and foolish, God did not turn His back on you.  No, instead of passing sentence on you and giving up on you - God showered you with His love - His patience and His mercy.  All to the glory of God.

All that God has done for you was to bring you to a place of submission to Him - a place where you would learn to trust God by faith.  The kind of faith that, even without a drop of proof - you believe as if it were already done."
