All Must Mean All



"All the paths of the Lord are loving and faithful." Psalm 25:10
All does not mean "all - except the paths I am walking in now," or "nearly all - except this especially difficult and painful path."  All must mean all.
So, your path with its unexplained sorrow or turmoil, and mine with its sharp flints and briers - and both our paths, with their unexplained perplexity, their sheer mystery - they are His paths, on which He will show Himself loving and faithful. Nothing else; nothing less.
Amy Carmichael, You Are My Hiding Place, p. 98
