II Corinthians 4:5-7
"For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, Who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us."

"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28
IF our daily life is FOUNDED in the morning and evening oblations (or devotionals), we must learn to believe in and accept His guidance. Often we find small things – or great – going contrary to what was planned or expected. ACCEPT IT – as from God! For in short order it will be seen how the delay or frustration was actually in our greater interest! Soon you will learn to shout the praises to His Name within your heart – sometimes audibly – at every turn and thwarting. For you shall learn to KNOW that God is always at the helm, and that thus any "accident" is an utter impossibility. ALL seemingly such are but portions of His Plan for our GOOD!
