"And some of them
said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that
even this man should not have died?" (John
11:37)
Today's meditation verse
highlights the mindset of people who, without understanding God's higher
purpose, tend to look at things with a limited perspective. When we live a
spiritual life, some may speak similarly about us: "Couldn't this have
been done differently? Shouldn't it have happened another way?"
When a skilled artist paints a
picture, at first, we may not understand what he is creating. There might not
be any visible beauty. But after a few days, when the painting is complete, we
will recognize its beauty. Similarly, when a sculptor chisels a stone, we may
not initially perceive what he is shaping. But in the end, we will admire his
work.
Likewise, many events in our
lives unfold in a similar manner. Since we do not know God's plan for us, we
often complain against Him. Yes, dear ones, but God has a divine purpose for
everything. I once worried about not getting a good job. But God had a different
plan for me. If I had secured a worldly job, I might have earned a lot of
money, but I would have missed knowing the true riches—Christ Jesus.
When Lazarus died, the Jews
who were present spoke these words about Jesus, as mentioned in today's
meditation verse. The one who opened the eyes of the blind could have kept
Lazarus from dying. But God's will was far greater than that. Lazarus had to die
so that Jesus could raise him on the fourth day, and through this, Christ would
be glorified. If Lazarus had not died, this miraculous event would not have
taken place.
The same happened when Christ
was crucified.
"And the people stood
beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others;
let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God." (Luke
23:35)
But the will of the Father was
that Christ should die and be glorified. Through this, He attained that glory.
As we read:
"But we see Jesus, who
was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned
with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every
man." (Hebrews 2:9)
Likewise, at times, people may
speak trivial words about us. But when we live in close fellowship with God, He
will reveal His will to us, allowing us to remain unshaken. When the Almighty
God is with us, He will elevate our present and future, and through us, the
glory of Christ will be revealed to others.
