- On your journey through life, there will be times when you will be too weary to go on. It will be then that Christ will carry you.
- There will be times when you will find yourself with infirmities, wounds, disabling wounds, brokenness, and unable to go on. It is then that Christ will carry you.
- There are times when you will find yourself in a valley, down in the worst times of your life, and unable to raise yourself. It will be then that He will lift your hand and pull you up.
- There are times when you will feel alone and abandoned. It will be then that the arms of Christ will hold you and embrace you. You will not see His arms with your eyes. Only sometimes will you feel them. But they will be there, always lifting you up, always keeping you, always holding you, always carrying you on.
- There is one more time when a man will carry his child. And that is, when his child has died. As you close your eyes for the last time in this life, your father will once more hold you and carry you from this world to your home, the Promised Land (Heaven), as lovingly, as a man carries his son.

Heb 1:3-6 3 The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. 4 So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs. 5 For to which of the angels did God ever say, “You are my Son; today I have become your Father”? Or again, “I will be his Father, and he will be my Son”? 6 And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God’s angels worship him.”

What an odd behavior!
The more I think of it, the weirder it seems. Talk about your double standards.
When things are going well, “Thank you God for such a wonderful _______” (you fill in the blank). How amazing you are!
When things do not go the way we want, “I can’t believe God would do this to me! How could He let this happen! If He’s such a loving, caring God, why did He allow _________.” (you fill in the blank).
I’m sure you can see where I’m going with this.
When things are going our way we can’t thank God enough. When things are not going our way we can’t blame God enough. And why do you suppose that is?
I would say it is partially due to not knowing God and His ways well enough.
Isaiah 55:8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord.
We sometimes have this self-righteous thinking that we deserve God’s love as long as it comes without problems.
If we have a better understanding of God’s ways then we would be able to have a stronger faith in Him, knowing that, “All things work for the good for those who love the Lord. ” This includes all the things we can’t understand even when God allows them to happen.
Having a “deeper knowledge” of God produces a “deeper faith in God.” Having a deeper faith allows us to accept whatever life throws at us, knowing that all things work for good for those who love God.
The deeper our knowledge “of” God, the deeper our faith “in” God, then, the more we will be able to give thanks to Him in all situations, Good and bad. Amen.
