 Someone sent this to me in an email.  I don't know the original author as it has been around the internet - perhaps you have already seen it.  If not, please take a look as it shows the infinite wisdom of God and how He knows things far in advance.  He sets the stage to keep us safe, yet many times we do not see it as such.  We may sit with our limited view wondering what God is doing, thinking He must have lost His mind, when in fact that is the farthest from the truth.  May this short parable bless you all today.
The King and his Servant
A king who  did not believe in the goodness of God, had a slave who, in all  circumstances  would always say “my king, do not be discouraged, because 
Everything  God does is perfect. He makes no mistakes!”   
One day  they went hunting and along the way a wild animal attacked the 
King. His  slave managed to kill the animal, but could not prevent his 
Majesty  from losing a finger.  
  
Furious and  without showing his gratitude for being saved, the nobleman asked   
"Is God  good? If He was good, I would not have been attacked and lost my finger."   
  
The slave  replied:  
   "My king,  despite all these things, I can only tell you that God is good, 
And he  knows why these things happened. What God does is perfect. He is 
Never  wrong!"  
  
Outraged by  the response, the king ordered the arrest of his slave.   
  
Later, the  King left for another hunt, this time alone. He was captured by 
Savages who  engaged in human sacrifices.  
  
On the  altar and ready to sacrifice the nobleman, the savages discovered 
That their   victim did not have one of his fingers. According to them, only 
A whole  person with all his/her parts intact could be offered to the gods. 
The King  without a finger was deemed an abominable sacrifice for their
Gods. So  they released the King.  
Upon his  return to the palace, the King authorized the release of his 
Slave. He  received the slave affectionately.    God was really good to me! I was almost
Killed by the wild men, but for lack of a single finger, I was let go! But
I have a question: if God is so good, why did he allow me to put you in jail?"

The slave answered, "my King, if I had gone with you on this hunt, I would
Have been sacrificed instead because I have no missing finger. Remember
Everything God does is perfect. He is never wrong. He made you keep me in
Jail so I would not be with you on the hunt."

Often we complain about life, and negative things that happen to us,
Forgetting that nothing is random and that everything has a purpose.

Every morning, offer your day to God, don't be in a rush.
"  
Ask God to  inspire your thoughts,  guide your actions, and ease your 
Feelings.  And do not be afraid. God is never wrong!   
  
You know  why this message is for you? I do not know, but God knows, because 
He never  makes mistakes.......  
What you do  with this message is up to you. May God put in your heart the 
Desire to  send it to someone. God knows why He chose you to receive this 
Message.  Please bless someone with it.  
God is  never wrong!

The Diligent Student will Prevail

Daughter, hold fast to your faith.  Things are about to get ugly upon the earth.  The darkest days are yet to come.  Days that are so dark, it will be nearly impossible to navigate. You MUST study My world.  For in My word, I have given you all that you need for this time that you are living in.  Do not turn to the left or the right.  Stay the course and keep your eyes on Me, as a student following the trainer.  Allow Me to train you in MY ways. Be diligent in your studies of My word, and do not allow the enemy to lull you to sleep.  Fight his temptations to give up.  He will flee from you when he sees your strength in Me.  He has nothing over you.  You possess ALL the power you need to defeat him in My name. Fear not My little ones, who are in Me and call on Me for protection.  I will not forsake you.  I have made a covenant with you, to love and protect My own. For those who refuse Me - woe to you!  The time is very near when you will suffer the consequences of your choice.

Do Not Doubt My Promises

See to it children, that when you pray, asking for something in My name, you do not doubt.   For doubt will rob you of My promises.   Stand firm on My word.   If I have given you a task and it feels strange to you, do not worry, for I am with you in the midst of it.   I would not send you out to the wolves unprepared and unarmed.   You may feel alone in this thing I am asking of you, but fear not; the great and mighty Jehovah will prepare the way for you to walk in My power and strength. Often I ask of you for the betterment of the other, but sometimes I ask things of you to strengthen your own faith.   When you doubt My words, you doubt My power to fulfill my promises to you.   Do not squelch My spirit.   It grieves Me when my children do not believe in faith, but allow the sin of doubt to control their minds.   Does My Holy Word not say, “ Ask and you shall receive”?   Why then, do you doubt and belittle My word? Be strong My children.   The time is near when the darknes

  June 13, 2021  Three Storms For the past three nights in a row, I've had a reoccurring dream involving a storm, flooding, and being trapped in some capacity.  I typically don't remember any dreams, unless they are significant and out of the ordinary, and I certainly don't have very similar dreams in such rapid succession, therefore, I took note when I had three such dreams in a row.  Each of these dreams were the last dream I had just prior to walking up that morning.   I am a believer that dreams can often be metaphorical.  Sometimes they play out exactly as they are dreamt, however many times they symbolize something else which often isn't realized until it happens. UPDATE:    Hurricane Ian just made it's way through Florida on September 28,2022 as a CAT 4 storm when it made landfall.  In my dreams I saw a specific area in New Smyrna Beach, FL, a route I took to work everyday.  I just got off the phone with a neighbor friend of mine who told me that most of New
