John 5

When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?” “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.” Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.” At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked. John 5:6-9 NIV)


God's will can be confusing. Trying to understand His will without a close relationship with Him is absurd.   So - this man referred to in the scripture had been there broken for 38yrs - so Jesus asked him "do you want to be well?"   Jesus told him "Pick up your mat and walk!!"  We live this way in our world.  Jesus has instructions for us - but we must want to hear it!!!  Take time to know Him.  We must want to "be well"!!!!
