The enemy often gives us questions about what other people say, do, or don't do that cause us to judge them, their actions, or to look at ourselves as superior. Lets see what happens when some people tried to do this with Jesus.

What does a Christian do when faced with decisions where each poses conflicts with their beliefs? Very often we can feel that if we can’t find a perfect choice, God must not be in it. We are tempted to make no decision at all and just take what comes, or take one of the options and feel we let God down. We are left asking "What is good enough for God?" How close to perfection does He expect in what we do or to whom He calls?

In looking for an answer to this question I looked at how God the Father made decisions when the choices were less than ideal. I learned a long time ago, I can learn a lot from Him! It is surprising how our assumptions of truth have handicapped our decision making!

Things happen in our lives begging the question “What was that?” When we do we are looking for understanding, but opinions often suffice. In today’s passage from John 12 we see a group of people who all heard the same thing, a voice from Heaven, but there were different opinions given as to what it was. This voice was intended for them to hear, had a purpose, but the purpose was missed by those who accepted an opinion instead of seeking the truth.

Have you ever wondered where God was when bad things happen or evil deeds by people cause harm to the innocent? The people in Jesus day did as well and they asked Jesus some questions regarding events in their day. This is another case of assumed truth and Jesus dispels 4 in this passage. It begins by observing some tragedies that occurred in those days and it seemed like God did nothing to preventing them, or in dealing with the evil people involved. He then goes on to heal a woman where some assumptions had taken hold as well.
