Ever wanted to ask God, Are we there yet?
God gives us principles (the scriptures) to help us understand why He puts us through disappointment in life. How do we respond to them? Is an emotional response to our failure to fulfill our goals and desires. That stalls us on our track and derails us from our focus on God.
Please read John chapter 11 "The Raising of Lazarus"
Here are some principles to learn from this passage.
First Principle:
God has a purpose for allowing the disappointments of our life.
Our disappointments don't have anything to do with God not loving us. God is loving us. Do you know why? Because it's all God does for us.
Second Principle:
God is more interested in our spiritual growth than relieving us from disappointments.
We don't get stalled, we don't get derailed. We use every disappointment as a stepping stone to learn, and to move forward in God's purpose in our life.
