"Why?"
It's the most common question we ask when something happens, most especially if it's bad. But what if, it's always been bad and suddenly it turns good?
"1 As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man who had been blind from birth. 2 “Rabbi,” his disciples asked him, “why was this man born blind? Was it because of his own sins or his parents’ sins?” 3 “It was not because of his sins or his parents’ sins,” Jesus answered. “This happened so the power of God could be seen in him."
This is my devotional today. Yeah, why is it when something good happens to someone who have been long suffering like the blind man since birth suddenly we ask why he was like that in the first place- "Was it because of his own sins or his parents’ sins?” 3 “It was not because of his sins or his parents’ sins,”..weeew...tsk2x..and we tend to do this don't we? We think..Think and think that the reason people are suffering or what they used to be, whether blindness or addiction or any kind of bondage makes us ask or rather judge- 'he was like that because his/her weak' or "he/she was not raised well by his/her parents.' or "he/she comes from a broken family.'...Yeah..don't tell me that we don't assume, because, I myself do it.
And I realized, the Lord lets this happen. He lets it be for His own purpose. Why?
“This happened so the power of God could be seen in him."
Sometimes, it's hard to fathom the Lord's ways. He lets things be, he lets it happen so that His glory be seen in your lives. A wonderful testimony in the making.
So instead of speculating "Why?"..Try asking yourself "What?". What is that thing that will make the 'Light of the World'- Jesus Shine in you...
