“Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects; therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.” (Job 5:17 ESV)
Hymn ELH 519:1,5 What God Ordains Is Always Good
What God ordains is always good:
His will abideth holy.
As He directs my life for me,
I follow meek and lowly.
My God indeed In every need
Doth well know how to shield me;
To Him, then, I will yield me.
What God ordains is always good:
Though I the cup am drinking
Which savors now of bitterness,
I take it without shrinking.
For after grief God grants relief,
My heart with comfort filling
And all my sorrow stilling.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me to learn from Your correction and find joy even in the hardships of this life. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
