Christ: Lord over Our Circumstances
Rev. William J. Wyne
John 11:42-44
In the 11th chapter of John we have reached the last of the seven signs of who John wanted us to see and believe that Christ was. Johns' intent was again to insure that any one that read his gospel would believe without a doubt that this Christ was not just able, but that he was also awesome.
And John also wanted you to know that he believed this truth personally without a doubt.

So word is crucial, but we also must have some works of God in our lives that makes the faith concrete. It is what we believe that God has done. It's the places in our lives where we believe he had to be there. It's the various scenes and situations in our lives that if they dusted the scene for finger prints; they would fine his prints or DNA. If he had not been there the outcome would have been different. Had God not been there, the now would not be, and most of our lives would be a has been.
