"And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.
And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David; they were sore displeased,"
Matthew 21:14-15
Christ was healing people as they came to him, which is so amazing, but this group was unhappy with those miracles. It seems inconcievable on one level, and yet, I think that we sometimes are displeased with God's kindness and generosity as well, wanting things to change in some way. Today, perhaps that is something to be wary of. When we find anything about God or his gospel irritating or unpleasant, let's take the time to examine those feelings and to talk to God about them, so that he can help us understand our hearts and change them for the better.
