It Will be Worth It

Heard this song at church today, as part of a message about patient endurance. As in, trusting God knows what He is doing and that He hasn’t forgotten you, even during the low points of life and when you’re not getting the answers you’re hoping for.

Great reminder to me to keep pressing on when life doesn’t make sense, or when the answers may not seem to be coming.

At the same time today, a great opportunity to give thanks for all of the things that are coming together and the answers to prayer that have been given.

God is faithful. Keep going. Keep trusting. Keep turning to Him. The reward will be worth it, in the end.

Have a great day.

Why?

It’s the question we’ve all asked since we were little kids. Why?

If you’re like me, it’s one you find yourself asking a lot in life. Why?

If you’re like me, it’s one you find yourself asking God sometimes, or perhaps more often, depending on the circumstances. Why?

Why is there so much hurt and pain, God? Why would You allow this to happen, God? Why doesn’t it make sense, God? Why haven’t You made it clear, God? Why isn’t something changing, God? Why?

I like to know the answer to this question. It can get pretty frustrating when the answer doesn’t seem clear. You too? Alright, glad it’s not just me!

Well, if that is you, then let me challenge you with something I heard the other day. It challenged me, in a good way.

“None of us will ever fully understand God and His ways. If we could, He would not be God and we would never need to learn to trust Him. It is not wrong to want to understand, but our understanding must be secondary to trusting the Lord.”
-Derek Prince

Time for me to start moving the trusting Him thing up to #1 on my list. Something tells me He will reveal the answers at just the right time, in just the right way.

Thanks, God…looking forward to it!

Have a great day.
