If you are willing

Mark 1:40-41
40 A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees, “If you are willing, you can make me clean.
41 Jesus was indignant.He reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” 42 Immediately the leprosy left him and he was cleansed.

I was talking to my mother one day and then she emphasised on these two verses. One thing she said that touched me was that the leper said If you are willing' . That clearly indicates that the leper knew that Jesus was the king and that He had a choice to make him clean or not .

We often pray to God and ask Him for things and Guidance , but how many times do we say to God that he should grant our wishes if He is willing? How many times do we accept the fact that God has not given us that thing we wanted because of His will ?We can pray for something several times but sometimes we forget to ask the Lord to let His will to be done . Maybe its because its painful sometimes to realise that God will not grant us that wish.

Our God is a God of love , He created us in His own image . Long before we were born He knew us and He knows the number of days of our lives , the number of hairs in our heads , isn't that amazing ? God loves us so much such that He can not let us to be in harms way if we follow and listen to Him . We sometimes don't get the things we ask for because He knows what is Good for us , so let us try to ask Him to let his will be done and grant us our wishes If He is willing.
