God always does what’s best for us
God, where are you? I don’t know how much more I can take!
Honestly, all of us have probably been guilty of crying out to God and asking that question during a crisis or waiting period. Our mind wants God to wave a magic wand to fix the problem instantly! Of course, that usually isn’t the case. God desires for us to trust Him, learn from Him, walk with Him, and have a deep relationship with Him knowing in our heart that He will answer/fix the problem! He only asks that we believe, trust Him, and wait on His perfect timing!
“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” (Galatians 6:9)
There are many times when we feel like throwing our hands in the air and giving up believing for our miracle. I’ll admit it can be discouraging at times when our prayers seem unanswered; but God never ignores us, ever! He is always working in our lives every day molding us into the image of Jesus. Yes, He loves us! We should read this verse again and see the key words….”for at the proper time…we will reap a harvest… ‘if’ we do not give up.”
“Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you.” (Psalm 9:10)
God’s timing is always perfect, never early, never late. Naturally, our human nature wants our answers now, not later. I’m thankful that we have a loving Abba Father (Daddy) that sees the big picture and knows the perfect timing. He desires for us to learn to trust Him when He doesn’t answer the moment we ask. Another key phrase in this scripture is we “can’t give up!” His promises are true, and if we don’t receive our miracle the moment we ask, we should trust and rest in His peace knowing He will answer at the right time. Again, it’s important to believe that He always does what’s best for us!
As we learn to walk with God daily, we understand He doesn’t always give us what we want. Again, He does what is best for us! If we pray for a “plan A” and he gives us a “plan B”, we should thank Him because He knows what’s best for each of us! We might not see it at the time, but it’s usually revealed down the road of life. God always does what’s best for us! I encourage you as you pray to memorize and confess out loud this saying, “Jesus always does what’s best for me!”
“Be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded.” (2 Chronicles 15:7)
Please don’t give up on God because He hasn’t and never will give up on you! Yes, Jesus loves me this I know…
Jesus is the answer! Jesus is your answer!
