For His Glory

In Mark chapter 9 Jesus comes across a man that was born blind. The disciples, thinking that this was a sin issue, tried to find out why. Here is the beginning of the story…

As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth. And his disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” Jesus answered, “It was not that this man sinned, or his parents, but that the works of God might be displayed in him. (Mark 9:1-3 English Standard Version).

Throughout life, we go through different situations where it can be very difficult to see the good in it. We don’t always know why God does what He does. But we see here in Mark 9 that difficult situations in our lives can be a way to glorify God. What trials are you going through right now? Give it to God. Thank Him for who He is and ask Him to take that situation and use it for His glory!
