These harsh dispensations of God – Thomas Brooks

“And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose for them.” Romans 8:28

The godly are able to put a sweet, a loving, and a favorable construction upon the most sharp, distressing, severe, and dreadful dispensations of God, knowing that all flows from love, and shall work for their spiritual and eternal good, and for the advancement of God’s honor and glory in the world. They know that there are no wrath, and curses, and woes wrapped up in these harsh dispensations of God.
