A friend
quit two jobs to become a full-time caregiver when his adult son was
seriously hurt in a car accident. That same year his wife of over 30
years contracted a terminal illness and died. Since then, he says he has no answers when his son asks “why” this happened to them. But he told me of a reassuring dream he had along the way. He dreamed that he was in a place that was awash with sunlight. There were crowds of people around him, and a man was answering all of his “why” questions. Each answer made so much sense that he clearly understood why he was not to know the answers now. Then he was with his son in the dream. But when he tried to help him with his questions, he couldn’t remember the answers. But even that seemed okay. And then he woke up. |

Read: Job 42:1-6 |
My friend’s experience reminds me of another friend of God who suffered with unanswered questions (Job 7:20-21). Only when God finally broke His silence and gave Job a vision of Himself in the wonder of creation did Job find something that was better than answers (42:1-6). Only then did Job find peace in knowing that our God has good and even wonderful reasons to trust Him. (Job
42 -Audio-)

I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees You. — Job 42:5 |
What
God is doing you may not know now,
But someday you’ll understand why; Questions that taunt you and trouble your mind Will one day have heaven’s reply. —Hess What’s
better than answers to our why questions?
Trusting a good God who has His reasons. |

Pero ustedes, ¡manténganse firmes y no bajen la guardia, porque sus obras serán recompensadas! (2 Crónicas 15:7) Muchas veces dejamos de avanzar porque nos da la sensación de que no progresamos. Ignoramos ciertas cosas y solo les damos valor cuando las perdemos. Por eso, es importante que valoricemos los pequeños avances, que continuemos trabajando y creyendo en la Palabra de Dios. Con Dios, lo poco llega a ser mucho. No te quedes desanimado, fortalécete en Dios. Cuando no valorizamos lo poco dejamos de alcanzar grandes bendiciones. Quien es fiel en lo poco, también será fiel en lo mucho (Lucas 16:10). Piensa en eso. No tardarás en ver la recompensa de tu fe. 🤲 ¡Un momento!
