We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Is suffering the will of God? Does He orchestrate suffering? Job 2:10 – “shall we accept good from God and not accept adversity?” Jer. 32:42 – “I brought all this calamity on this people.” Amos 3:6 – “if a calamity occurs in a city, has not the Lord done it?” 1 Pet 3:17 – “if God should will it so, that you suffer for doing right.” 1 Pet. 4:19 – “those who suffer according to the will of God.”
James Fowler

When I speak of a man “growing in grace,” I mean simply this - that his sense of sin is becoming deeper, his faith stronger, his hope brighter, his love more extensive, his spiritual-mindedness more marked. He feels more of the power of godliness in his own heart. He manifests more of it in his life. He is going on from strength to strength, from faith to faith, and from grace to grace.
