Friday! Proverbs!
The Lord works out everything to its proper end - even the wicked for a day of disaster.
Proverbs 16:4 NIV
Hardly the most uplifting thing I've read...but...this Proverb does reinforce that one day, the wrongs will be righted, the hurts will be healed, those who choose faith in Jesus will know what that really means...and justice will be happen.
This proverb is a statement of faith.
My faith is in God to work things out. Even in the midst of trouble or difficulty, if poeple or circumstances are against us, the Lord, Yahweh, will work this out in the end.

...four men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They couldn't bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, so they dug a hole through the roof above his head. Then they lowered the man on his mat, right down in front of Jesus... Mark 2:3-4 NLT Great account of inventiveness and determination to get their friend to see Jesus. Love this. Do you wonder about the back story? Are these the same 4 people who bring this man food? Take him to the toilet every day. Clean him up. Does he live with one of them? Are they family? Are there whole families or groups of people in the background who have supported and cared for this man? A group of children who grew up seeing their parents love in action? Probably. Healing Help Hope These things are found in community. These 4 guys are the heroes here. The upfront people. One day it will be interesting to see who the background heroes are. #loveinaction #community #inthistogether #walkingeachotherhome #gospelofmark
