What we want is a God that shows up and gives us everything we ask for, everything we desire, everything we want. What we have is a God that loves us enough to give us what we need most, even if we didn’t even know we needed it. As Jesus rode into town on the back of a donkey, he had the expectations of a city that was buzzing with anticipation. Instead of bowing to their desires, he continues to move to the cross in order to give them what they need. Which teaches us the pattern for our lives- he doesn’t remove the suffering, he redeems it.
