A Daily Devotional

About when God says "No" in love:

Isaiah 45:9 "Woe to him who quarrels with his Maker, to him who is but a potsherd among the potsherds on the ground. Does the clay say to the potter, `What are you making?' (NIV)

We ask God to give us what we think we want and need. Sometimes, God says "No." However, in God's answer there is love. God does not always do what we want or give us our request. The Lord knows better about what we need than we do. We may pray every day for our request to be answered as we want. However, when we go to the heart of God, He sometimes says we cannot have what we want. When God says "No," beneath the surface, His answer may seem harsh. However, His answer is not a harsh answer because in answering us He reveals Himself to us in love. The Lord may never be willing to give us what we want because of factors we must not know about until we see Him. When we receive the Lord's "No" answer, we must learn to trust Him. When we receive a "No" from God we must then invest our whole heart in Him. When we receive a "No" from God we must be patient as we do His will each day. Receiving a negative answer from God is not easy because we have so many expectations about Him. However, when we trust the Lord, His negative answer to us may hurt us when we receive the answer. However, we have a degree of peace when we live with what the Lord wants for us.
