A Purpose for Everything

Proverbs 16:4

"The LORD has made everything for its own purpose, even the wicked for the day of evil."

How can God in His holiness allow wickedness to exist? How can He let the wicked prosper? Sometimes its hard to believe that there's a glorious purpose to all the evil that exists in this world. At times like these, we must trust in God's Word. God is sovereign over evil. He allowed for sin yet He is still holy. Evil exists to magnify the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. In the end, we will see God's wonderful purpose for evil in the world clearly and will praise Him for His wisdom and power. Let's let our minds chew on this incredible fact. God bless!
