### DAY FOUR: Let Go of Your Expectations God exists outside of time as we know it and is always at work. Therefore, He does not stop working on the Sabbath even though He did set a precedent for us humans by resting on the seventh day after creation (Gen. 2:2). The religious leaders in this passage had convinced themselves they were so righteous and holy that they would be sure to recognize the Messiah when God sent Him. They could not see their own pride, arrogance, and self-righteousness, which blinded them from recognizing the deity of Jesus. If we want to experience the abundance of life Jesus brings, we must let go of our own expectations. Even after we have walked with Christ for a long time, we must never assume God conforms to our way of seeing things or our timetable for answering prayers. Our spiritual growth depends on humility. Human systems, temporal progression, and what we think of as scientific fact do not confine God. While an orthopedic specialist from the twenty-first century might be able to examine the paralyzed man before and after his healing to attempt a medical explanation of what took place, we should not need to understand how God’s miracles happen in order to receive them in our lives.
