Daily Devotionals by Ardith Keef

 
     It is the tendency of human nature to want to know why.
     Most of the why's we will see in heaven when we will have the capacity to understand. Right now, He wants us to operate on a "because I said so" basis, and our obedience to Him is for that reason and that reason alone - because He said!
     Most tragedy and even the things that seem small and either good or bad will be put in perspective when we see Jesus.
     For the time being, don't wait for everything to make sense - if you do, you will miss the Lord.
     If I must know why, it means that I consider myself to be so important that I must pass approval on the reasons for things that are out of my control.
     A soldier may wonder, but he does not need to be given a reason before he carries out his assignment. We are soldiers of the cross, and there must be those who are willing to obey now and get the reason why later.
