Encouragement
I turned to the ocean and saw its waves . I looked to the sky and saw its clouds. I gazed at the moon and saw its indents . Then I looked to God and saw his stillness . Why are you so still Lord when there are tempests all around me . The waves define the ocean , the clouds define the sky and the moon is defined by its indents .
So when God is still and your mind tells you he has forgotten about you , your heart should say , not forgotten but waiting . Waiting until you will come forth defined. Defined in your destiny and transformed to his likeness. There are many times when one assumes that God is far and not listening and your prayer seems to be going unanswered . However God is not always noted for working on stage but rather behind the scenes. You have a part to play and in your specified scene , shine without complaining . God has his own scene and when he appears , in his majesty , he will shine his face upon you.
We need to know that when we do our part then God will do his part .His stillness in your life is the same reflection of where he was when his son Jesus was on the cross. Right there knowing that “His perfect will must be done” . A momentary affliction that will breed forth a lifetime of definition and destiny. Not so easy for the human mind to understand but then God is infinite and the omega of our lives.
You and God are a majority when we concentrate on his omnipotent , omniscient and omnipresent attribute. God has no memory loss . However his watch is not according to the Quartz on our wrists .
God’s super natural ability kicks in when your eyes are of the natural .In your weakness , God will turn up stronger.
So be still and know that he is God . God of the heavens and the earth . God who raises you up , God who knows your name , God who is the strength of a fainting heart. God who is a sure foundation that even when our whole world will fall apart , he keeps you intact . So when the tide rises , rest assured God hasn’t forgotten about you but rather waiting patiently for you to soar . He is a faithful Father never allowing us more than we can handle .
So before “WHY LORD” leaves your lips , let “YES LORD “leave your heart . Trust him rather than try to understand him . After all , he is the beginning and the end . Before time , through time and even when time ceases .
Psalms 37 vs 7
Wait patiently for the LORD! Wait confidently for him
God Bless you
