Father knows best!

(Choice selections from Thomas Brooks,
The Mute Christian Under the Smarting Rod)

[i]"Our fathers disciplined us for a little while as they
thought best; but God disciplines us for our good,
that we may share in His holiness." Hebrews 12:10.[/i]

What God, our Father wills, is best.

When He wills sickness, sickness is better than health.

When He wills weakness, weakness is better than strength.

When He wills poverty, poverty is better than wealth.

When He wills reproach, reproach is better than honor.

When He wills death, death is better than life.

As God is [b]wisdom[/b] itself, and so knows that which is
best; so He is [b]goodness[/b] itself, and therefore cannot
do anything but that which is best—[b]therefore remain
silent before the Lord.[/b]

Amen!

Only this;

Psa 51:11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
