When we are in the midst of tough times, it can feel very lonely, and we may wonder where God is. Does He know what we're going through? Does He care? God does, and more than we realize. "Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, God’s Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don’t know how or what to pray, it doesn’t matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans. He knows us far better than we know ourselves, knows our pregnant condition, and keeps us present before God. That’s why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good." Romans 8:26-28, Peterson's "The Message" But sometimes difficult things have to happen for God to get our attention. Sometimes He is working get us on the right track, or trying to teach us something important that we can't understand any other way. But we have the promise that He will bring good out of ALL of it. |
