all is well which starts and ends well, indeed is a true statement but many a times isn't what always happens, it got me pondering today that even if we are there for other (our friends and families) at times we can never really feel what they are feeling and moreover experience what they may be experiencing!!!!!! hence the show of our finiteness.
sad as it may be it's actually great on the flip side, WHY? well i guess it can only lead us to go before the feet of him who is infinite in his being and adequate for all our needs
I am struck by Jesus' answer to Martha over what she had chosen over that which Mary had chosen.
LUKE 10:38 Now as they went on their way, Jesus128 entered a certain village where a woman named Martha welcomed him as a guest.129 10:39 She130 had a sister named Mary, who sat131 at the Lord’s feet132 and listened to what he said. 10:40 But Martha was distracted133 with all the preparations she had to make,134 so135 she came up to him and said, “Lord, don’t you care136 that my sister has left me to do all the work137 alone? Tell138 her to help me.” 10:41 But the Lord139 answered her,140 “Martha, Martha,141 you are worried and troubled142 about many things, 10:42 but one thing143 is needed. Mary has chosen the best144 part; it will not be taken away from her.”
"my question is to us all, how are we prepared to react when we realise that at times we are just inadequate and don't always have the answers to our situations and to those which our close and loved ones are going through?"
i pray we turn in humility to God acknowledging his SUFFICIENCY to our every situation and just LEARN TO WILLINGLY TRUST UPON HIS INFINITENESS!!!!
PROVERBS 3:5 Trust12 in the Lord with all your heart,13
and do not rely14 on your own understanding.15
3:6 Acknowledge16 him in all your ways,17
and he will make your paths straight.18
3:7 Do not be wise in your own estimation;19
fear the Lord and turn away from evil.20
MAY WE FIND ADEQUECY IN HIS BEING WHATEVER OUR CIRCUMSTANCE
