What to Do When God Doesn’t Intervene

Today’s episode will be emotional for many. It certainly was for me.
We’re going to talk about our need to forgive God. Yes, I know how strange that sounds, but hear me out.
We all want things to make sense. It makes sense that an all powerful God can do anything. We, for good reason, expect Him to answer when we pray. It doesn’t make sense when a God that can do anything… doesn’t.
Because of our limited understanding, it hurts especially bad when our all powerful God chooses not heal or work a situation out the way we want.
Martha must have felt this way when she said, Lord, if you had been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.
Because we are emotional beings, this type of disappointment can easily create feelings of resentment toward God.
We must forgive God. Let me be clear, God has never needed a pardon from us. He’s never actually done anything wrong. However, the process of forgiving is the best way to explain the process we need to go through. Forgiving God is more closely related to releasing our pain, frustration and disappointment in His decision to answer differently than we had hoped.
In this episode we’ll look at biblical examples of others that experienced these disappointments and discuss how they handled it. We’ll also lay out a few ways to begin the process of… forgiving God.
He's truly working things for our best, even when we can't understand.
Let’s keep building!
