Ac25

Are we confident that God uses every circumstance in our lives to bring honor to Himself? Paul was. His imprisonment, though unjust, was the opportunity he needed to write letters to the churches!

Paul had know idea what God was doing when he was in prison. Yet, he was confident that God was using even his imprisonment for good. As he wrote I imagine he felt the strength of Christ in his hands, but did he know he was actually writing scripture? I think not.

Today, I am so grateful for Paul's prison letters! Without them, we would be without much of our New Testament. It was in prison that Paul wrote, "We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God: those who are called according to His purposes." He pinned no truer words!
