On Mother's day a believer from a Buddhist country shared the following story. A Buddhist teacher told her class the Garden of Eden story. However she told them that God created Moses and Eve. This believer stood up and corrected her saying 'no Ma'am his name was Adam. The teacher figured out that the student is a Christian got angry at her and send her out of the class. Also warned her that she will be never allowed to attend this teacher's class again. Later the daughter talked to her mother over the phone. To comfort the daughter the mother sang "Yes God is Good" in different languages. And counseled her to be bold and never be ashamed to stand up for Jesus.
On "Mother's day she remembers this with great admiration for her mother.

Shall we be discontented at that which works for our good?

If one friend should throw a bag of money at another, and in throwing it, should graze his head, he would not be troubled much, seeing by this means he had got a bag of money.

See here the wisdom of God, who can make the worst things imaginable turn to the good of the saints. He can by a divine chemistry extract gold out of dross. “Oh the depth of the wisdom of God!” (Rom. 11:33). It is God’s great design to set forth the wonder of His wisdom. The Lord made Joseph’s prison a step to preferment. There was no way for Jonah to be saved, but by being swallowed up. God suffered the Egyptians to hate Israel (Psalm 106:41), and this was the means of their deliverance. St. Paul was bound with a chain, and that chain which did bind him was the means of enlarging the gospel (Phil. 1:12).
