"All will be well."

Working
Faith's confidence rests in the assurance--the promise--we have that
He is always at work. Most of the time we do not see His hand silenty
but surely doing good for us and for those we love. But understanding
who He is--the God of love, faithfulness, and perfect wisdom empowers us
to ourselves be instruments of love, faithfulness, and comfort--even
when, especially when, we cannot see. As one of my favorite quotes
says, "He is too wise to make a mistake and too loving to be
unkind." Dynamic faith reflects that confidence in word and deed. In
times of success and in times of failure. In times of great joy and in
times of great sorrow. In times when we can see and understand His
goodness in our lives and in times we can see neither. Faith knows that
the same love and grace that led Him to Calvary--willingly--on our
behalf, is the same depth of love and grace that He is still working
into our lives. "When peace like a river attendeth my way, when sorrows
like sea billows roll . . .it is well with my soul."
