So many people on my mind, and in my prayers. Hard times come to all of us. Some going through much harder times than others, and questions start to rise up. It's a fight just to keep it together. His presence isn't felt. You don't know what to pray anymore. It's OK. He's a big God, with big shoulders. He understands our weaknesses.
I LOVE Psalm 139! The whole thing! Just look at some of these scriptures.. 7 "Where can I go from your spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?".... There isn't anywhere in our every waking moment that He isn't with us.
There are many times in my life where I have screamed out, "where are you God?" and never a time that I have said this, that I have ever felt guilty. I never stopped believing, and I know that He has big enough shoulders to handle my questions and tantrum. Like verse 1 says, " O Lord, you have searched me and you know me."
Never give up. Just keep taking 1 step closer. There is light in the darkness. Reach out for prayer. We have faithful brothers and sisters that will pray and carry us to the comforting arms of Jesus when we don't know what to pray, Luke 5: 17-20. I love this story because it wasn't even the paralytics faith that impressed Jesus, but the faith of his friends. Jesus responded to their faith and healed the man. Prayer is powerful. According to God's will and purpose, it will be done.
When the night feels like it's closing in, don't give up. Pray according to His will. Or ask someone to pray for you.
Matthew 9:28, " Do you believe that I am able to do this?" ......Jesus asks us this question, and confronts us in every individual situation we will encounter in life. May we never give up on the great supernatural position of limitless confidence in Jesus Christ.
For Your glory Lord
