Why Ask Why?

God is Faithful

Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The LORD is faithful to all his promises and loving toward all he has made. Psalm 145:13

When passed over for a promotion, or seeking employment, when illness strikes, or when things don’t make sense – we all want to know WHY.

In the story of Lazarus, Martha said to the Lord “if you had been here, my brother would not have died. But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask." John 11:21-22 Despite her profound grief and lack of understanding behind her brother’s death, she trusted Jesus. Later that day, Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead for all who believed to see the glory of God.

We’ll never know the answer to some of life’s questions. But what we do know is that God knows, and that He loves us, desires the best for us and has a grand plan for us. And when we trust God with all the answers, we find peace that surpasses all understanding.

And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7

Because God is faithful, in Christ we can find peace even though we don't have all the answers.
