Sitting alone one evening, I was trying to solve the problem of life’s many perplexities and sorrows. I seemed like an insect tangled in a web, and I could not see the way out anywhere.
Raising my eyes from my open Bible, they lighted upon a small card on the wall of my room, from whence shone out in silver lettering the words: “Your Father Knoweth.”
They came to me like a ray of sunshine. Yes, He knows, and He alone can show me the way out of my difficulty.
“Lord,” I prayed, “I leave all in Thy hands.”
Then the turmoil which seemed surging around me ceased, and I knew my Father had undertaken for me.
So I would pass the word on to others: “Your Father Knoweth,” every fresh turn in life’s road, what new difficulties and dangers, and joys, too, are awaiting you. “He knoweth the way.” Whatever your trouble, loneliness, difficulties in your special life work, also the carelessness and indifference of those you love about the salvation of their souls—remember that He knows all about it.
Look away, then, to Him. Dare to trust Him implicitly, and you shall not only find that He knows your way, but that He is also making all things to “work together for good.”
