Finding Faith in God's Silence: Understanding Divine Timing
Join us for our morning devotional on October 11th, 2024, as we explore the theme of 'After God's Silence' inspired by Oswald Chambers' "My Utmost for His Highest." In today's discussion, we delve into John 11 and the silence during Lazarus's sickness, reflecting on how God's silence can actually be a profound blessing and an invitation to understand His greater purposes. We discuss the importance of embracing silence for spiritual growth, resisting the temptation to fill the void with worldly distractions, and the significance of repentance and honesty in identifying personal sins. Through this conversation, we aim to equip listeners with the wisdom to perceive divine silence not as punishment but as an opportunity to deepen their faith and integrity.
