Luke 19:34 -- On Deferring to the Lord

"And they said, The Lord hath need of him."
Luke 19:34


This is from a story about Christ's disciples losing  a colt.  The owners asked why they were doing that, and this was the answer.  The owners apparently, once they knew that, said nothing additional, deferring to the Lord's need.

To me, this seems really cool... both to have the spirit close so that we can know what God wants, and also to understand that even when things get taken away from us, that it is all part of God's will, and it will work out in the end.

Today, let's trust and know that the Lord is in charge.  He has need of the things that we lose, and he is the reason behind all of our blessings.  Let's defer to his need, and trust that the things that happen are for a reason, and that God will make everything right in the end.
