Have you heard the many stories that came out of the 9/11 tragedy, from those who were delayed by something or someone that unforgettable day?

For example, the person that missed their bus and ended up being late or never made it to work.  At that moment they were so frustrated but when they heard about what happened they were so thankful for that delay. A good thing came out of a bad situation.  

Another example is of people who faced many problems in their marriage but today use those same bad and painful experiences to help others. A good thing came out of a bad situation.

The Bible says:

It is good for me that I have been afflicted,

that I may learn your statutes.

(Psalm 119:71)

But how could affliction be good? It was good because it brought him closer to God.

Maybe you have a personal experience of something bad that happened to you, but at the same time, it brought you closer to God. At that moment a good thing came out of a bad situation.

In the current state of the world, it may be hard to imagine, how anything good can come out of it. But always remember what God’s word says,

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

(Romans 8:28) 

Let us believe and keep focused on the Word of God, His words will never fail us.

May the God of the Bible bless you

Bishop Joshua Fonseca
