Back in the day, I had the great pleasure of working with Bob Benson, especially in retreats and conferences. In my opinion, he was just about the BEST speaker for those settings.
I still remember so many of the things he had to say, not just on the platform, but also around the lunch table, in his office at the Benson Company, and many other places. Today, when times are rapidly changing, I'm glad I knew Bob and have his "sayings" to encourage me.
One of the best Bob quotes I remember is one that brings me to a better understanding of God's nature. "I've had good days, and I've had bad days. To tell you truth, the older I get, the hard it is to tell the difference."
I think I know what Bob meant. There are days when I scratch my head and say, "God, are you sure?" Then, I get on down the road where I can look back and realize those harder days were days that became some of the best days because I learned a lot more about a the faithfulness of God. He truly is good on the good days and still God on the "not so good" days. He makes all the days good, even if I can't see it at the time.
Praise God for His faithfulness... whether we "see" it right now or not!
