Father, why have you forsaken me?
These are some of Jesus' last words. We can sometimes feel that God has forgotten us. Yet, despite His questioning, Jesus' attachment to His Father did not change. A beautiful lesson for us today.
When God doesn't answer
We ask God for a particular solution, and we get silence. We can even end up asking: “Where is God?” No one can explain all the reasons for these silences, but here are some ideas to encourage you.
What God is doing behind the scenes
We have been waiting for the answer to our prayer for a very long time. Has God forgotten us? Why is He not acting? Frustration can build quickly. What if God was working…out of our field of vision?
Dare to speak!
Yes, the prayer of the righteous is very effective. But sometimes God also asks us to use the beautiful voice He has given us to show His love, to express our needs and feelings, and to defend ourselves.
