Everything is against me!

(Arthur Pink)

"Their father Jacob said to them: You have deprived me of my children. Joseph is no more and Simeon is no more - and now you want to take Benjamin. Everything is against me!" Genesis 42:36

Those circumstances, which to the dim eye of Jacob's faith wore a hue so somber - were at that very moment developing and perfecting the events which were to shed around the evening of his life, the halo of a glorious and cloudless sunset! God was working all things together for his good!

Just so, troubled soul, the "much tribulation" will soon be over - and as you enter the "kingdom of God" you shall then see, no longer "through a glass darkly" but in the unshadowed sunlight of the Divine presence, that "all things" did  indeed "work together" for your personal and eternal good!
