We've all been hurt and let down by people in our lives that we love or have loved. It can take us into seasons of pain and doubt about the goodness of God toward us. It can slow us down and cause us to be unfruitful and unproductive as kingdom people.
“Do not be afraid, for am I in the place of God? ... [You] meant evil against me; but God meant it for good ... to save many people alive. Now therefore, do not be afraid; I will provide for you and your little ones.” And he comforted them and spoke kindly to them.
— Genesis 50:19-21, nkjv
"So be very careful how you live, not being like those with no understanding, but live honorably with true wisdom, for we are living in evil times. MAKE THE MOST OF every day as you spend your life for his purposes."
