"And they were astonished beyond measure, saying, 'He has done all things well. He makes both the deaf to hear and the mute to speak.'" - Mark 7:37
In this verse, we see the reaction of the crowd after Jesus healed a deaf and mute man. They were astonished beyond measure, and they made a profound statement: "He has done all things well."
This statement is more than just a casual observation. It's a declaration of Jesus' character and nature. It's a recognition that everything He does is good, perfect, and right. He doesn't just heal physical ailments; He also restores spiritual health and wholeness.
As we reflect on our own lives, we can ask ourselves: Are we trusting in Jesus' goodness and sovereignty? Are we believing that He has done all things well, even when we don't understand or agree with His ways?
Let us take a moment to surrender our doubts and fears to Him, trusting that He is working everything out for our good. May we, like the crowd in this verse, be astonished by His power and grace, and may we declare to the world that He has done all things well.
Prayer
Dear Jesus, help me to trust in your goodness and sovereignty.
