They Mysterious Goodness of God…

“Who doesn’t watch the news and howl? Who doesn’t breathe through wounds and grieve for what was or dreamed and isn’t? How do you sit around a table and bow your head in thanks when parts of this world and bits of you are somewhere crushed?…giving thanks is only this: making the canyon of pain into a megaphone to proclaim the ultimate goodness of God…Thanksgiving in all things accepts the deep mystery of God through everything (Ann Voskamp).”

Jer 29:7 ” And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captive, and pray unto Jehovah for it; for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.” ESV

Jer 29:7 And work for the peace and prosperity of the city where I sent you into exile. Pray to the LORD for it, for its welfare will determine your welfare.” NLT
