How much what Naaman said reflect what I am thinking these days!
The prophet sent him the message:
“Go and wash seven times in the Jordan,
and your flesh will heal, and you will be clean.”
But Naaman went away angry, saying,“I thought that he would surely come out and stand there to invoke the LORD his God,and would move his hand over the spot,
and thus cure the leprosy.
Observe the behavior of the leper Naaman. God gave him the healing he asked for, but at first Naaman didn't believe it because it was offered in an unexpected way.
Usually, when we think that God has abandoned us, what's really happened is that he's not giving us what we want the way we want it!
To see what God is doing and to receive everything that he wants to give us, we have to first get rid of our expectations. When dealing with God, we should expect the unexpected!
