Everyone can relate to a period in their lives when they have felt extremely alone or abandoned. “GOD, where are you?” No matter how much you cry and pray, it seems that there is only one set of foot prints in the sand and you are certain that they belong only to you. Whether you can believe it or not, that is the time in your life when GOD is most near. GOD never promised us a life without pain and hardship, but he did promise that if you believe in him and his word, he would always be there, even when the road gets tough.
It is easy to say that you have a healthy and fulfilling relationship with GOD when life seems to be breezing by and all of your prayers are being answered. What about those other times? Faith is the definition of believing in something even when you can’t see it. Hebrews 11:1, tells us that “Faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” GOD is always working behind the scenes for our good but we have to do our part too. He loves us unconditionally and his only request is to love one another and trust in him. Of course, there is a little more to it but that is the foundation to building a beautiful relationship with the Creator of the world.
We are not expected to understand GOD’s will, but we are required to accept it and allow it to move in our lives. Click the link below and let’s chat!
