But God…

Jer 29:11 - ‘For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the LORD, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.’

We like Jeremiah 29:11 about the plans God has for us, but how often do we question when things aren’t working according to our plan?

These kinds of questions come up frequently in the Bible, and the answer is often, “But God.”  I found numerous verses, and I chose a few that appealed to me.

Patient Perspectives

I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearing and His kingdom:  preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience and instruction.  For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths.  2Timothy 4:1-4
