What in the world am I talking about. Well, you know how it is. Sometimes you get down and feel low. And, just when you need it most he comes through. I have seen it over and over again. I am reminded of the story of Lazarus when he died. Jesus loved Lazarus. He also loved Mary and Martha. But, when the news came that Lazarus was sick Jesus "tarried." Why did he wait around. Well, the disciples asked the same question. Jesus said, "But when Jesus heard about it he said, “Lazarus’s sickness will not end in death. No, it happened for the glory of God so that the Son of God will receive glory from this.” Eventually Jesus went to be with Mary and Martha. They expressed their frustration that he had not been there so that Lazarus would not have died. But Lazarus did die. He was in the ground for three days but when Jesus said, |"Lazarus, Come Forth." Lazarus rose from the dead. Praise the Lord. According to the world's way of thinking Jesus was late. There is a Southern Gospel song that says he was three days late but right on time. God is NEVER late. He is always right on time. God got glory and continues to do so because Lazarus died. Jesus came at the perfect time to raise him when there was no question that he was dead.
I am prone to get anxious and want the answer right now. God always has ways to accomplish he plan and to get the glory. I want to be a part of his getting the glory. I want my life to bring him glory so Lord I am waiting on you.
