Why question the Lord? Does it change your circumstances? Why worry about things you cannot change? What about faith? Faith can change the circumstances, right? Where is God and why is he not helping?
I do not understand why these things are happening to me!!!!
Have you ever asked one or more of these questions? I know that I have. It is hard to wrap our minds around some things that we go through. I do not pretend to have the answers to these questions. God is sovereign. He has a plan: "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." (Jeremiah 29:11)
I know that God has blessed me beyond measure. There have been many tests and trials and times where I did not know if I could take any more, but I also know that God has a plan for me. What if you throw in the towel? What if you give up? Your circumstances will still be the same!
There are times when we are strong and times where we are weak. When you do not know if you can take one more step or go through one more battle remember where your strength comes from: "My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken." (Psalm 62:1-2)
Over the course of history, there have been mighty men and women of God. I do not know of one of them that did not go through seasons of testing and trials. God did not turn his back on them and He has not turned His back on you. Tests make us stronger and wiser. When you are weak and weary, “lift up thine eyes” toward the Creator of Heaven and Earth!!
He will not fail us!!!
"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging." (Psalm 46:1-3)
