Sometimes I think to myself, can life get better than this? And myself responds, with God, the answer seems to be no! God is wonderful though. Everything he does in our lives is inexplicably connected in strange ways, the majority of which we never get a full comprehending of. There's no way to describe his workings-to simply say "wonderful" is the most enormous understatement of the age. It's interesting to think sometimes of how He orchestrates how all the people in your life will play a part in affecting or helping you, why they are there, when they'll enter your life, their characteristics, personality, etc.; and it gets more complex when you turn it around and realize that you're a part of others' lives around you, too, and you affect or help them. It boggles the mind even to begin the process of trying to think of how complex His workings are. And He funnels it all into something good, every time. So not only is His plan complicated, it is beneficial. I especially should know this. Before I moved to Georgia, I was horrible, very selfish, depressed, having rejects for for friends, immature, ignorant, and all that stuff. Then it's almost as if the Omniscient One, sitting high on His throne yet still filling every cubby and corner and crack of the earth as well as the universe beyond, decided that He'd had enough of this miniscule wretch, and was going to teach him a lesson (although not through the usual "fire and brimstone"). He let me gain so much knowledge and grow so much....It's amazing. Everything was(and still is) wonderful: He gave me friends that help and care, a pastor-as well as staff-that lovingly reproach and teach very well, a church that's beyond being kind and compassionate, the works. And the thing is, all of that collaborated to teach me a lesson that I'll never forget. But anyways, God is great. And Omnipotent, and omnipresent, all-knowing, and the list just goes on and on....

Signing off,

Oh, I see. An argument breaks out 'twixt the two friends. Interesting. Yes, I'm glad, RW, that you find this post interesting. It is a rare occasion though.
