We’ll be able to trust Him

Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick. (James 5:14–15 ESV)

 If we stop to consider why the Lord would allow these afflictions in the lives of His children and not deliver them immediately, many even not in this life, I think we’ll find some very valuable and important reasons.
 Faith isn’t a matter of trusting when things go right; it’s when it looks like things have gone wrong that faith comes into play. And our reaction should be one of trust when things go differently than we had hoped or asked.
 It isn’t our responsibility to determine who gets healing and who doesn’t. It is our responsibility to have love enough to take the risk of being seen as a failure as we obey the Lord and do whatever He shows us. If we’re praying for the healing of others because we want to glorify the Lord, out of a pure love for Him and others, we won’t be overly concerned how “successful” we appear in the eyes of others. We’ll be able to trust Him whether things go the way we think they should or not. —Maria Fontaine [1]

 We can't, and we should not, compare sufferings. We come together as a family of God, hand in hand. And then together coming and standing upon the promises of God, knowing that no matter who you are, no matter what you're going through, that God knows it, He is with you, He is going to pull you through. — Nick Vujicic
