God surrounded your life

Everything takes place for the wellbeing of those who love the Lord

When devil tried to touch Job`s life, he said there was a hedge fence surrounding Job`s life. The fence is made using small and thin pieces of wood in order to prevent even the smallest animal to pass through it, a very closed fence. The brunt of the devil was that he couldn't get into Job`s life. It was a reserved area and what's inside the area develops, grows and multiplies. There are whole areas to breeding animals made with hedge fences, so that the animal becomes bigger than regular ones, for not having natural predators and annoyances that influence their development. Your life, when surrounded, also prevents you from leaving the surrounded area. It might mean having to accept that everything that happens to us is according to God's allowance while God cares for us within that fence.

In Romans 8: 28, it`s said that we know that all things work together for good to those that love God and are called according to their purpose. It`s everything. All I mean all that can help your life to be better and to get the salvation.

Even when things don't work out, as you'd like to, if you love God, you must trust that, now on, you will be grateful that things will turn out different, because there is no harm to those who love God. No matter what happens, everything God does is good, to those who love God. To others, there is just hardship and even what is good might turn out bad. While the rain and the sun punish most, to those who love God, there is no bad time.
