I don’t know about you, but this weekend was just pretty good for us. Jim and Judy were here from Western Kansas Friday evening for a short visit. We had a great time at church this morning, and the small group meeting at our place this evening was productive as well as fun fellowship. The weather cooperated, and the girls did well this long weekend (they didn’t have school Friday).
When things go well, we often don’t stop and thank God for that. Maybe some of us don’t think God had much to do with it and it was just coincidence or what we expected. I’ve come to think, however, that God maybe has more to do with things like this than we know, and although I know that trials must come along with the good, when that good comes, I know where it comes from.
This week, even if the good happens for just an hour or two, thank God for it and for that time when things went well and you were at your peak. Then when the inevitable trials come your way, thank Him too for those; for it’s only because one wades through trials in life that one can truly appreciate the good times when they come.
