Where Are You, God?

Human beings do not readily admit desperation. When they do, the kingdom of heaven draws near.

Think about it. If you understood everything completely and fully, you wouldn’t need faith, would you?

But without faith, it’s impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6). Why? Because faith and trust must emerge from love, not from a business relationship, a partnership or some situation in which we have no choice.

Are you willing to ask yourself honest questions? You have to first know God, believe in Who He Is and then ask the questions to learn His truth.

“But without faith it is impossible to [walk with God and] please Him, for whoever comes [near] to God must [necessarily] believe that God exists and that He rewards those who [earnestly and diligently] seek Him.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭11‬:‭6‬ ‭

When you’re stumbling through a valley, it’s difficult to see the light. You want to believe, but you’re having a hard time reconciling the hope-filled message of the Christian faith with what you’re seeing around you.

Ask and keep on asking and it will be given to you; seek and keep on seeking …

Matthew‬ ‭7‬:‭7‬-‭11‬ ‭

God is wanting you to ask Him, to ask His way and as your looks to him he wants you to have the answer!!!!

More than 2,600 years ago, Habakkuk asked many of the same questions people all over the world are still asking today. And in his grace, God relieved some of Habakkuk’s anguish, even as he left other questions unanswered. But on the other side of his doubts, Habakkuk grew into a person with a richer faith, a faith that may not have developed as fully had he not struggled through his doubts.

“This is the message that the prophet Habakkuk received in a vision. How long, O Lord, must I call for help? But you do not listen! “Violence is everywhere!” I cry, but you do not come to save. Must I forever see these evil deeds? Why must I watch all this misery? Wherever I look, I see destruction and violence. I am surrounded by people who love to argue and fight. The law has become paralyzed, and there is no justice in the courts. The wicked far outnumber the righteous, so that justice has become perverted.”
‭‭Habakkuk‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭
