WILL WE STILL TRUST HIM?

"I don't have all the answers to certain situations and we probably never will, but SOMETIMES things do happen. God DOES allow to SEE IF WE WILL STILL TRUST HIM? WIN, LOSE, OR DRAW....Do we still love Him & Trust Him with our life NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS. NO MATTER WHO OR WHAT COMES N GOES..

I first wrote this back on March 16 to a friend I was talking to about how she dealt with a very bad breakup. The conversation basically was about her praying to God and how she felt her prayers were falling on deaf ears. She said she would pray to the Lord constantly and asked for strength and for the pain to be taken away. She even prayed for her ex who consistently betrayed her. My friend has serious doubts when it comes to males and is so very afraid of trusting their actions or believing their motives when they appear genuine.

A lot of times we have anger in us, buried so deep and we don't always know why. I told her to let go of that anger and pray to the Lord because only HE can help you let it go. It was then she told me how she did pray but felt the Lord wasn't hearing her because she didn't feel any change within herself about the situation. She still felt bad and was still hurting. She thought the Lord didn't care or she was being punished for something.

1 Peter 5:7 NLT

Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.

Psalms 55:22 NLT

Give your burdens to the Lord , and he will take care of you. He will not permit the godly to slip and fall.

Many of us at some point in our lives have felt that God's silence was  equal to Him being dismissive.

Psalms 46:10 NLT

“Be still, and know that I am God!"

The silence of God can seem like great torture, but on the contrary, it's one of the times we find great strength in Him. His silence increases our faith. How badly do want & need Him during that hour? Will we still believe & trust Him to be who He says He is when we feel He's not listening and doesn't care? Patience in the Lord isn't an easy thing to have.

Numbers 23:19 NLT

God is not a man, so he does not lie. He is not human, so he does not change his mind. Has he ever spoken and failed to act? Has he ever promised and not carried it through?

One thing I know for sure without a shadow of doubt is the Lord does care about us and He deeply cares about the things that happens to us! Never let anyone or allow any of your circumstances to make you feel like the Lord has forgotten about you or that He doesn't care about you. We may forget about Him, but He never forgets us!

I pray you are Blessed & Encouraged in the Lord!!! ♥♡
