July 27


"Then shall I know fully even as also I was fully known." 1 Corinthians 13:12

When we come before the judgment seat of Christ we shall stand there, not only to be assessed by God, but that he may explain certain things to us—things which seem all wrong now, but which are his perfect will. In many cases we will have to confess that where we had thought we were right, it is clear now that we were quite wrong. In other cases, however, the Lord will assure us that in fact we were right, but that he was right also.

Not to be offended with the Lord is the highest form of discipline and carries with it a special blessing. There are times when it really seems to us that God is not acting according to his promise. Somehow he seems less than his Word. In fact, he is always better than his Word. We must trust him now: we shall know it all then.
