Reason Why

When Lazarus became sick, word was sent to Jesus to come quickly.  But Jeses did not.  He waited a few days.  Then, He knew the exact time when to leave and go to Lazarus.

When I ask for help, my prayes are not always answered immediately.  I often wonder why.  But in John 11, Jesus explains to me that it was all for a reason.  His delay had a purpose.  He tells me that the death of Lazarus happened so that glory would be brought to the Son of God.  

My ways are not God’s ways.  I want things impatiently, immediately.  God’s ways are not my ways.  God will answer my prayers in His time.  He knows me better than I know myself.  He knows when I will appreciate His answers and His healings.  God loves me.

I don’t always understand the reasoning behind God’s ways, but I trust and have faith in Him.  He loves me more than I could imagine.

Trust in Him.
