Perfect Place

My Papa, mama's daddy, was very particular about his tools. We knew better than to mess with them! He could spot if anything had been moved even slightly. He believed everything had its place and he lived by it – everything better be its rightful place!

Life is bumpy, wouldn't you agree? Potholes ... okay, canyons along the way! Every situation and circumstance we go through has a specific place and purpose in God's plan. Maybe it's to teach us to trust Him more and ourselves less or to remind us God is in control. Whatever it is, we can rest in this promise: " ... 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) Yes, Papa was right on target: everything has its perfect place in … God's Plan.
