for you, that your faith may not fail

Often it's the howlers preventing the rest with the nagging in the head. But apparent that some cases can be the Spirit gushing like a fount. In cases like that, get up. Passed along wisdom:

In John 11, Martha meets Jesus as He arrives in Bethany and is angry with the Lord, angry. And she basically accuses Him of letting her brother die. Similar to our disappointment when we don't see or understand the Lord's decisions, Satan can use that confusion, hurt, and anger against us. But what is remarkable is Martha's response shortly after her accusation of Jesus. It's pure faith, and acceptance that she knows who He is, and that His will be done. For us, the answer to our anger toward God is a reminder that He is still who He says He is, and that the walk of faith is about not letting our non-understanding of Him and His will interfere with the walk.

Praying for you. For your walks of faith to not stumble.
