There used to be a series on TV called tales of the unexpectant, which reminds me how suddenly the unexpected can come into our lives,this happened recently to my oldest boy.The fact is ,life if full of the unexpectant,indeed the title of that old TV series could be written over all our lives. This is why it is vital for us all to grasp the truth that God is in control,that He is sovereign,I mention this often simply because I believe that we all need to be reminded of this continually. As to the unexpectant event concerning my son the last thing I said to him was,pray about it,in other words turn to the one who is in control. In His providence He brings the unexpected,it is not all hurtful things,it includes all things,which again reminds us of what God says about the all things,that if we are a child of God then He will work those all things for our good[ Romans 8 v28].So whatever unexpectantly comes into our lives ,it will work for our good,God will see to that.Let us remember,in the words of an old hymn,that, all our times are in His hand,all events at His command.
A prayer....../Dear God help us not to be panicked ,or dismayed by the unexpectant,help us to trust and to not be afraid, in Jesus name Amen/
