It Takes Faith
�Remember, O God, that my life is but a breath; my eyes will never see happiness again.�
Notice I didn't give you the scripture reference this morning. I'm going to keep you guessing for a moment.
You know, when you're in the middle of a trial, it�s pretty hard to see God's hand, isn't it? The one who said the above quote felt that way. I know when I can't understand what God is allowing to happen in my life, I start to question His love and His plan. I start to allow Satan to trip me up with doubts.
Oh, intellectually, I know that God is still in control, that �everything works for the good for those who love Him.� (Do you ever resent being told that so many times in the middle of a crisis?) I know that every time and in every situation God has always come through for me.
I know that the scripture says that if I'm a child of God, and if I wait on Him, He will never let me be put to shame. He will never leave me nor forsake me. He w ill always make my paths straight.
I will admit, it takes faith to keep on trusting during the bumpy days of life. But, God's track record is pretty good, isn't it? In fact, He's flawless!
Just ask Job! That's right, Job 7:7 is our scripture for today. And, if you've read the end of the story, Job turns out alright! God comes through again!
Sure didn't seem like it at the time, did it Job?
