No matter what, don’t give up. We all have days in which we feel that we can’t go on. We feel like we’ve done everything we can do to save a relationship, to make things work on our job, to right the wrong path of a child, to help a friend who turns out to be ungrateful or we’ve worked so hard to be happy and things just aren’t working. Even though you have all these and more things going on in your life right now, you CANNOT give up! Because God is still there.
Even though you may feel like God isn’t there, He is. You’ve prayed and prayed and God hasn’t answered your prayers. You’ve done so much to help others, but your personal situation keeps getting worse. Your co-workers are promoted, but you stay in the same position even though you feel like you’ve worked harder, accomplished more and been a team player. But it is someone else who gets promoted. God sees. God sees you and He sees your situation. He is there. He hears your prayers. He sees your hard work. Don’t, for one second, start to think that He has left you. He is right there.
So why wasn’t it you that got the promotion? Why wasn’t it you that had your prayers answered?
Because God has something special, amazing, awesome and specially designed and built for you. It is coming your way in God’s timing. He has seen you, heard you and is constantly protecting you. Yes, He sees the co-workers getting promoted. He has a better position for you. It may be in the same company, but it could also be somewhere else. He hears your prayers, but in His infinite wisdom, He knows what is best for you. He has a better position, a better blessing, a better relationship for you, a better life for you. Trust Him.
Your day, your week, your month are all coming to you. Believe it. And remember that even though God may be silent, He sees you, hears you and protects you without ceasing.
Sending you blessings of love, prayer and gratitude from Sterrett, Alabama!
