~ Sometimes people used to say to me that God is with you in the trail. It never seemed like it was enough to hear that. What does that mean? Is God doing anything I would wonder.
"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." ~ Psalm 46:1
~ I think it is important to note that yes, God is with us in the trial, but it is also important to note that God is our "ever-present help" in the trial. He is not simply watching us.
Jairus:
21 When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while he was by the lake. 22 Then one of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus, came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feet. 23 He pleaded earnestly with him, “My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.” 24 So Jesus went with him.
. . .
35 While Jesus was still speaking, some people came from the house of Jairus, the synagogue leader. “Your daughter is dead,” they said. “Why bother the teacher anymore?”
36 Overhearing what they said, Jesus told him, “Don’t be afraid; just believe.”
~ Jesus was with Jairus in the trial - but He was always doing something.
"If God be for us, who can be against us." ~ Rom. 8:31
Jesus went with Jairus to his home. Jesus was for Jairus.
*Note: The interruption of the woman with bleeding. Had that interruption not been there, God would not have been as glorified.
