As for you,

you meant evil

     against me,

but God meant it

     for good,

to bring it about

that many people

should be kept alive,

as they are today.

So do not fear.

   Genesis 50. 20-21

(God always has

deeper purposes

woven into this,

beyond what we

can see or imagine.

God's redeeming

is already on the move,

even when we

   don't understand

at the time

or never see

what He is bringing about.

God never works

in singular outcomes.

We have only to

forgive continually,

be faithful

 in what is before us,

and let God use it

for tremendous good.)

O LORD,

Help us to keep our eyes

        on You.

Help us to see You only,

not pursuing

    different perspective

    on circumstances,

but seeking

    a change of heart.

We cannot know

what You are doing

with this difficulty,

but we can know

   You are good,

   You are here,

and redeeming this.

Grant us, O LORD,

Your provision

   to keep us going,

and Your vision

   to follow You.
