"And you must always obey the Lord's commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good." (Deuteronomy 10:13, NLT)
"The Passion of Jesus," Jesus' Gethsemane, Jesus' suffering under the Sanhedrin, the Roman Governor, the Via Dolorosa, the Cross, the Tomb, the Resurrection is, "for your own good." Moreover, remember this the next time you read through the Bible: All we read is, "....for your own good."
Father, in Jesus' Name, You Are Good and all You do Is Good. Amen.
Hebrews 12:2
When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
