The Life of Jesus, Part 6 (6/10)نمونہ

# I don’t understand, but I will follow When I was young I remember going camping with my family. We were supposed to set up camp on an island. But when we got to the ferry it turned out it could not carry cars. My mom and two sisters had gone ahead and had already arrived on the island. My dad and I were left behind. What were we going to do? My dad decided, " We're going to leave our car and belongings behind. Just take what we need." What? Leave everything behind? I decided to trust my dad even though I didn't quite understand. I followed my dad. The followers of Jesus didn't quite understand Jesus either. They heard the news that Jesus' friend Lazarus was really ill. But Jesus decided not to go to him. If he loved Lazarus and was known as the great healer, why not? Jesus stayed. He waited. I'm sure his friends were wondering, "What are you waiting for? Let's not wait around and waste any more time." Thomas did not understand Jesus at all. But he decides to trust him. When Jesus does call him to go to Bethany in the end, he follows him. Sometimes we don't understand Jesus' timing. His ways can be so different from our plans that they make no sense from our perspective. In the end my dad was right. I trusted him and we had the best camping trip ever. Even without all our stuff. Sometimes it may feel like Jesus is asking you to leave your stuff behind. Or he might ask you to wait and stay. Trust him. He will be right in the end.
