Answers Will Not Satisfy

Episode Summary

Episode Transcription

Hi, I’m Joni Eareckson Tada. I was reading some funny questions in a magazine, and one of them was, “Why do they put Braille dots on the keypad of a drive-up ATM?” You know, some questions in life are silly, but there are some questions that are absolutely worth asking. Questions about your suffering and your hardships. As humans we want to know “why” before we can trust God, but God tells us to trust him first, and then the answers will come in time. It’s all about walking by faith, not by sight. Wisdom is not the ability to see things from God's point of view; wisdom is the ability to trust God even when you can't see things from his perspective. Answers will not satisfy your need to know, but faith will, for faith assures you that Jesus is the only one who holds all of the answers.
