The timing of this is incredible. My daughter had a seizure last night right before we were all heading to bed. Obviously it's very stressful. So today you wake up tired and exhausted as your mind runs. Wrestling with the Lord. Thank you John and the team for this devotion today and pointing us back towards Jesus.
Lord, we lift Brandon and his family up as they walk through this trying time. We ask for your peace to cover them, your strength to sustain them, and your healing presence to surround his daughter. Amid worry and exhaustion, draw them close to you, steady their minds, and remind them of your unfailing love. Thank you for the support they find in this devotion and the community around them. We pray for restful hearts and renewed strength today, trusting you to hold them in your hands. We pray in Jesus' name. Amen. Bruce
Brandon we are grateful Jesus met you right where you are in the midst of the unknown and uncertain We hold you dearly and lift you and your family up to the mighty God we serve to hold you tightly in his arms and give you peace In Jesus Name Bucky
My son had a first time seizure last Monday and we have been in the hospital ever since. He is doing well! I Will be praying for you and your family during this scary time.
The LORD has been teaching this very thing to me over most of my life. I didn’t get for many years. When I look back over the years I can see the pattern. Sometimes He leaves me in place for awhile before He acts. Sometimes it isn't the answer I wanted. Sometimes it is the answer I hoped for but not until the last mintue. I have learned that He always hears me, loves me, and provides for me. I am grateful He has never given up on me.
Sometimes it hurts not knowing. My wife’s upcoming major surgery is weighing on me, the timing, the outcome, the whole process. John, you’ve given me a lot to think about. Thank you. I’m left wondering about the answers. I know I’m hurting. I know God is always good. Lord, help me find the answers I need. Help me to grow in whatever way I need to grow.
Bruce, I love your response here. Honest, raw, and so humble. Jesus, you are always good. Please help Bruce see your answers, and help him grow in whatever way he needs. And I'm asking you to please take great care of his wife. May this surgery be guided by your healing hands. - Brad
John, thank you for using a hard experience in your life to develop a whole new ministry that touches so many lives. We all struggle, but what we need to know is that good can come out of the struggle if we give God His time. Thanks again for being you!!
So thankful for this message in the midst of so much uncertainty in multiple situations in my family, as well as the church and the world. Jesus knows. I can have courage and confidence and persevere. Amen.
Lynn we are deeply grateful you are with us and know the might God we serve is along side you and will provide the confidence and perseverance only he can give Blessings Bucky
Thank you! Sometimes when I'm anxious, or uncertain and my prayers are just building up inside of me; I am calmed by knowing God Knows and God will let me know at the right time. Then I ask God to help me wait in peace for Him.
Rose being able to rest and calm yourself in His presence knowing that God is in control and will reveal himself in his timing is powerful. Thank you for sharing and blessing others in the Become New Community Bucky
“No one has ever explained life or love; no one has ever lived, died, or been raised again the way that Jesus did. He is worthy of our trust-even when there are things we don’t know.”
I wonder if Jesus as a human really knew if the Father would raise Lazarus. I wonder when Jesus tarried whether he himself did not know and wanted as a human to not know??? We’ll never know!
Jake wonder this side of heaven is good - we will know all the answers to our questions in due time. While Jesus was fully human he was still fully God in close relationship with his Father. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and wonder - as we are sure others wonder as well. Bucky

No. We don’t know. Because sometimes He does and sometimes He doesn’t.
I wonder if Jesus as a human really knew if the Father would raise Lazarus. I wonder when Jesus tarried whether he himself did not know and wanted as a human to not know??? We’ll never know!
