Good Morning Friends,
Do you ever feel like your prayers are not
getting through to God? Do you feel like
He isn’t listening? David felt that same
way at times.
“Listen to my prayer, O God, do not ignore my
plea; hear me and answer me. My thoughts
trouble me and I am distraught.” (Psalm 55:1-2)
But David didn’t give up praying despite the
fact that sometimes it didn’t seem like his prayers were getting through to
God. Eventually it became apparent that
God was listening.
“But I call to God, and the LORD saves
me. Evening, morning and noon I cry out
in distress, and he hears my voice.” (Psalm 55:16-17)
Here was David’s conclusion: “Cast your cares on the LORD and he will
sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall. ...
But as for me, I trust in you.” (Psalm 55:22-23)
It doesn’t always seem like God is listening
and doesn’t always look like God is answering.
But He does care and He can be trusted.
It is a matter of trust -- a matter of faith.
Even when it seems like your prayers are not
making it past the clouds, keep praying.
Trust that God is listening. In
the end, it will be clear that He was!
His, by Grace,
Steve
