John 11 Your brother, Lazarus, is sick and dying. Your sister, Mary, is emotional. You're just trying to hold it together. And the one person you are CONVINCED can solve the problem, the healer, seems to be taking his sweet time getting there. And then...it's too late.
Have you had times in your life when you've prayed so earnestly for God to intervene and it seemed like he left you to handle it on your own? As we are surrounded by all that COVID-19 brings--illness, death, economic hardship and uncertainty--where is God? Why would he let this happen? Doesn't He care that hospitals are full, health care professionals are overloaded, people are losing their jobs? Why won't He--or why can't He--just heal us right now? What is He waiting for???
Here's the promise: Jesus is here in the perfect time with the perfect solution. He loves us deeply. He grieves when we grieve and rejoices when we rejoice. No other God is like our God. But still...sometimes you just wish he'd make himself known just a little bit sooner.
Join Man in the Mirror president, Brett Clemmer, as he kicks off our series, Walking with God in a Pandemic. It's going to be a great—but still perhaps a difficult—day.
