His Sweet Will

I’m hugging our kids a little tighter today after learning that a family friend was severely injured while serving in Afghanistan.  I can only imagine what his wife, parents and sisters are experiencing right now as they contemplate the difficult road ahead.  It’s so hard to find the good in situations such as these, when we are once again reminded of human frailty and the repercussions of sin.  But we rest on the knowledge that God is good, and His ways are perfect. 

“Ill that God blesses is our good,

And unblest good is ill;

And all is right that seems most wrong,

If it be His sweet will.”
