What God Has Made Crooked

Oct 20, 2024    Jon Paul Dennison

Every circumstance in our life is given to us by God and intended at its exact time to mature us. If God desired to shape us in a different way, He would have placed different trials in our path. Scottish Covenanter Thomas Boston understood this as he wrote "The Crook in the Lot" during a volatile time of uncertainty among the Puritans. Boston knew that considering the crook in our lot as the work of God is the proper means for us to be rightly sanctified through God's use of it in our lives.
