The guts of a clock are deceiving

.
Romans 8:28
When you look at the guts inside of a non-digital clock or watch, well, it looks like mayhem. To most of us, a glance at it literally screams "mess". All of those tiny little pieces, seemingly randomly placed, moving in opposite directions, spells chaos to the untrained eye. There is no rhyme nor rhythm to the mess. Then, the reveal; turn the clock or watch around and lo and behold, the hands are moving just as they should move, keeping perfect time.
If we hold faith and trust God, our lives are just like that clock or watch. Often there is chaos and mess inside, but we still function, mostly just as we can and should--because we are holding faith and trusting God.
God sees to it that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. 
Yes, even this old Timex can experience turmoil inside at times, and God will still use my hands and feet for His purposes. Yours too!
