Because I Said SO!

“Because I said so!!” How many times have you caught yourself saying that to your children? Sometimes I get frustrated when Lucas wants specific reasons for why I told him to do something. The easiest thing to say is, “Because I said so!”

When we read the Bible we’ll often find there are specific things God wants us to do. Just like my Lucas, I often want to know the why’s, when’s, and how’s before I step out in faith. But true faith means obeying God even when all my questions aren’t answered. True faith also means trusting Him to provide the necessary answers when the time is right.

So, do you ever find yourself asking God why He wants you to do something? Just like we want our kids to do what we say, we should obey God today not because we necessarily understand but because, He said so.
