As we go about our life and unpleasant things happen – and they do happen to all of us – sometimes we wonder where God was, or why He let that happen, or why doesn’t He do something about it. If we need something, shouldn’t He just give it to us – if He really cares?
But wait – it’s not that God doesn’t care because He does – in fact He cares enough to die on the cross for us.
He just wants us to talk to Him, to tell Him things and to ask for His help. Sometimes the only time we talk to Him is when we want something but that’s okay with God because He loves us and wants us to talk to him. And He’s ready and willing to listen and to help us – all we have to do is ask!
……”Ask, and it shall be give to you.” – Matthew 7:7
Ronnie, I often think that next to the wonder of salvation is the great promise from the Lord about Him being with us through thick and thin. As human beings, we want so much to see it all and control it all, but we remain limited beings. Trusting in God is freeing, because He understands better than anyone who we are and what we face everyday.
