If I do have a favourite hymn,it would be that hymn by William Cowper,'God moves in a mysterious way ',it is so profound and meaningful.In Romans 11 v33 we read,'How unsearchable are His judgments,and His ways past finding out'.Can anybody tell why so many things are happening in this world at this time,only a sovereign God knows.Let us face it,there are so many why's in life,that we do not have an answer for. Consider Job who suffered so much,he stands in the midst of the ruins of his life, with no answer to the why,he had experienced so much suffering, it was all a mystery to him.In the end he stopped questioning God (40 v 4-5 )So that's it,no,God is not a cold impersonal being,He is a God of Love,and He has a special love for His children. In Romans 8 v 28,we are told something very important,'that our sovereign God is working out all things for good to those who love Him'.Consider those words 'all things',it means just that,but it also goes unto to say ,'according to His purpose'. Yes God has a purpose for all His children's lives,and that purpose is that we may be conformed to image of His Son.( 8 v29 ),consider what that means in your life,as I will consider what it means in my life.
