God turns evil of man into good.

 Amen. This is one of the most profound miracles of God's sovereignty—His divine alchemy that takes the worst intentions of humankind and weaves them into a tapestry of redemption and grace. Here is a poem on that mighty act of reversal.

Into Good

When evil rises, a dark and raging flood,

Conceived in the heart of man for blood,

You stand unmoved,the Sovereign Lord,

Holding the balance,the final word.

You do not cause the wicked choice,

But You silence hell's triumphant voice

By taking what was meant to kill,

Toturn the evil of man into good, according to Your will.

“You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.”(Genesis 50:20)

The cross, the prime, the awful crime,

The darkest hour in human time—

You took that evil,deep and vast,

And built salvation on it at last.

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”(Romans 8:28)

So when I see the chaos reign,

The pointless loss,the searing pain,

I trust the Weaver who sees the thread,

And works a future hope instead.

Teach me to trust this mystery,

This painful,holy history.

That You,the God of resurrection,

Can give a grace-filled direction

To every broken,fallen thing,

And make the desert valleys sing.

You turn the evil of man into good.

For You are God,and You are love.

And Your kingdom reigns above.

Amen.
