We see this attitude today, also. So many people are willing to believe gossip and slander, and so few are willing to seek after the truth. Let their lying lips be silenced, for with pride and contempt they speak arrogantly against the righteous. At times our emotions take control and put us in a state of panic. Everything works to His purpose.
Nothing is random.
If we feel pain, it is by His approval. If we experience gladness, it comes from Him. If there is a God, He would certainly be involved in His creation. How great is Your goodness, which You have stored up for those who fear You, which You bestow in the sight of men on those who take refuge in You. Praise be to the LORD, for He showed His wonderful love to me when I was in a besieged city.
