In this instalment of Life Notes, we have an excerpt from a message from the Rev. Lloyd L. Goodwin: we can get to hear why we may go through troubles. Why we may never get to have our way, because God is sovereign, shall not the judge of the earth do right? We get our dreams shuttered, we get wounded hearts, because God - the judge of all is up to something and will use anything to get our attention. This is what it means to take up your cross and follow on. Another instalment on Life Notes - the notes worthwhile.
