During a conversation with a friend I remarked on the
difference between the word allow and the word permit
where the Lord is concerned. I am so blessed as I
ask the Lord to help me understand His ways and
His heart, how faithful He is…..
I have known for years that God does not ‘allow’
sickness, poverty and pain. But He does permit
it because in giving mankind ‘free will’ God limits
Himself as His gifts and callings are without
repentance–so He does not violate His own
ways.
Allow means to give full agreement and approval
to something. Permit just means to give permission.
The Lord does not bring sickness to teach us
something, even though He will bring good
out of what the devil means for evil. (Rom 8:28)
What a blessing to understand the heart of God and what
He wants for us….hope this will help you as it has
impacted my life:
