When someone has an epiphany, it's not that reality changed. The way they see that reality did. In the same way, having Jesus in our lives doesn't always mean our reality changes. It simply means we see that reality differently (and better). Today we get an “Epiphany Orientation” about the way God handles our requests. It’s easy to limit our expectations of God and to assume that, if he ever says “no” to a request, we’re getting less than we wanted. In reality, God often wants more for us than we want from him. Saying “yes” to all of our requests would often result in us receiving far less; his “no” assures he wants to give us much more. Far more than existing as a “help desk” or a 911 dispatch, God’s love for us is like that of a groom for his bride. His love for us exceeds all expectation and understanding.
