Absolutely everything is for our good. The problem is many times we do not understand the good. The good isn’t big ministries, the good isn’t fame in the Christian life, the good isn’t that after we die someone will write a book about us, the good isn’t that we’re respected as the greatest pastor in the world. The good is that we look like Jesus; that we look like Christ.
– Paul Washer
Good quote. That’s a tough pill to swallow for many Christian ministries today that believe that bigger is better. I experienced that recently with my trip to a “mega-church”.

It’s a tough pill to swallow for any Christian going through a trial in their life. Believe me, I’ve faced the death of a parent, and it’s not something I would wish on even my enemies, but even still, God allowed some blessings to come out of the experience of losing my dad.
