Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. -Romans 12:2
Romans 8:28, “…we know that for those who love God, all things work together for good, for those who are called according to His purpose.”
