A Prayer to Remind Us God Works for Our Good

Father,

Sometimes I can’t understand how you can bring beauty from the ashes of my life.

I struggle to trust you with the broken pieces.

You say in your Word that without faith it is impossible to please you, and I want to please you. I want to trust you.

I want you to make me more like Jesus and use my trials for my good and your glory. Help me believe the promise of Romans 8:28. In the strong name of Jesus I ask, Amen.

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”(Romans 8:28)

This Scripture brings comfort, direction, and hope to Christians every day. Sadly, it’s also one of the most misquoted and misunderstood verses in the Bible.

I’d like to share three things about this popular verse you may never have noticed.
