"It's The Best Way"

Please note that there will be NO Coffee Break devotional for the next couple of weeks. The store will be closed so we can take a break, so I am taking some time off from everything for a couple of weeks. Love and blessings to you.

"It's The Best Way"

"And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me."  Matthew 11:6

God doesn't always do things the way we think He's going to do them. Usually, He does it just the opposite of what we think.  The point is...don't get offended with God just because He chooses to do something in a way contrary to how you think He is going to do it.  

God's ways aren't our ways...they are perfect.  Our ways are imperfect.  We do things from a natural perspective; God does them from a spiritual perspective.  We do things according to the present while God does them with the future in mind.  God does what He does on an eternal plane, not a temporary one.

God always does things in a much greater way than we can imagine.  Our verse this morning, in context, was Jesus's reply to John the Baptist when he sent his disciples to ask Jesus if He was the Messiah or should he look for another.  You may be facing a "John situation" this morning.  You may be sitting in the middle of a dark prison of confusion.  You may be looking for Jesus to do something for you in a certain way.  You may not understand why God isn't moving in a certain way on your behalf.  Or why He allowed a certain thing to happen.  His word to you this morning is the same one that He spoke to John..."Blessed is he who is not offended in me."  Don't be offended because He isn't doing it "your" way or the way you thought He would.  Trust Him.  Trust that His way is better, and that He knows exactly what He is doing.  

Have a great day.  His way is the best way.
