He works!

We know that all things work together for good to those who love God. (Romans 8:28)

A shipwreck...survivor...prayed for God to rescue him, but help didn't come. Eventually he built a hut out of driftwood for protection from the elements. One day he...found his hut in flames, the smoke rising into the sky. Angrily he cried, "God, how could You do this to me?" The next morning he was awakened by rescuers. "How did you know I was here?" he asked. "We saw your smoke signal," they replied.

The next time it seems as if your last hope has gone up in smoke, remember what "we know" to be true. When God says that all things work together for good to those who love Him, He means all things!
