According to an article, Henry Ford asked some engineers to box the transmissions for his Model-T Fords in certain sized boxes. He gave meticulous dimensions and material instructions for these boxes. The builders were confused, but they did as they were told. When the transmissions were delivered, the factory workers took apart the boxes and used them for the floorboards! Mr. Ford was thinking ahead!

That's what God does. According to Matthew 6:8, He knows what we need even before we ask. We may not understand all His ways, just like those people who were boxing up the transmissions did not understand. “We walk by faith, not by sight” (2 Cor. 5:7). We may not always understand, but we live by His promises.

His promises are “Yes, and Amen” (2 Cor. 1:20). Their certainty rest upon His faithfulness. The statement is true, “Never doubt in the darkness what God has promised you in the light.” Live life in the assurance of Almighty God!
