Jesus’ words remind us that some challenges serve a greater purpose in God’s plan. By declaring that the sickness was “not unto death, but for the glory of God,” Jesus points to the transformative power of faith. This perspective offers comfort, suggesting that even in trials, God is working for a greater good. The glory of God becomes evident as faith is tested and refined. When we face struggles, this verse encourages us to trust that God has a purpose beyond our understanding. This promise invites us to lean on Him, knowing that He can turn our suffering into a testimony of His grace. May this inspire us to approach challenges with faith, trusting that God’s glory will be revealed in due time. In moments of uncertainty, let us hold onto His words, finding peace in the knowledge that He is always at work for our good and His glory.
