If you have had a relationship with anyone longer than about a week, you know this to be true: we each have a different idea of what sounds \u201cgood.\u201d\u202fSome love the snowy winter; others migrate to warmer climates. Some love eggnog; others feel like they\u2019re drinking warm glue.\u202fSome want to attend every Christmas party they can; others just want to sit by the fireplace until spring.\u202f\u202f<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

In Romans 8:28, the Apostle Paul writes, \u201c<\/span>And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.\u201d\u202f<\/span><\/i>\u202f\u202f<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

The promise of this verse is one of the greatest promises in scripture, as long as we are all defining \u201cgood\u201d the same way. If we keep reading into verse 29, we see how this passage defines the word:\u202f<\/span>\u201cFor those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/i>\u202f\u202f<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

According to scripture, the definition of good is looking more like Jesus. And this might be because of the things in life we would\u202f<\/span>not<\/span><\/i>\u202fdefine as good. God\u2019s plan in redeeming humanity included a period of\u202f<\/span>development\u202f<\/span><\/i>in which his children would remain on Earth to operate as the Church. The calling of each person who makes up the Church would be multi-faceted:\u202f\u202f\u202f<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
