Edification, Sparks

God invests everything with a meaning, for those who love Him, and are the called according to His purpose. The wisdom of God lays hold of everything and gives to it a value. It may be that only eternity will reveal to us the value of some things, but we must believe that, inasmuch our lives are wholly under His government, there is nothing without meaning, nothing without a value. His wisdom governs everything.TASThe stewardship of the mystery

Turning Difficulties to AccountThe completing of the House of God will be no less fraught with difficulty and obstruction than the commencement, but. . . where the Holy Spirit is absolute Lord, these difficulties will be proved rather complementary than otherwise. The ”many adversaries” will only be sovereignly used to further rather than arrest the consummation of ”the eternal purpose.”TASMarch, 1967
