Psalm 51: 10-15

God's promise, "I will never leave you, or forsake you"

Throughout my joyous and inspiring life with Jesus Christ I have been privileged and blessed to be a witness to the countless miracles he has performed in answer to my prayers for others.

He has healed people, restored marriages, found employment and hope for many, and rescued friends from depression, destructive habits and addictions. He literally turned their lives around and brought them rebirth and salvation.

While I was watching the perfection of his supernatural powers, I was completely awed by the events that were so flawlessly brought to completion. Then there were times I felt complete silence from God.

It seemed no matter how hard I prayed, I did not get an answer.

There are times when our Heavenly Father seems like an unkind friend. He is not. We must be patient and keep having faith in him and in due time everything will be clear.

Have complete faith that whatever God is doing it will be for good.

Keep confident that God is present and involved in our lives, even when it seems he isn't.

Our foundation is based on the authority of Gods' written word.

God's timing is perfect, even when he appears catastrophically late!

Prayer: We thank you Lord Jesus that your Holy Spirit has opened our eyes and our hearts to the truth and beauty that surrounds us and dwells within us. Even in times of darkness we know you are there to clear our confusion and to keep us in the light always. Amen.
