Sorry it has been so long since I have written. I am trying to make this blog work into my schedule, so I will be changing to a weekly format. I am also researching new topics and going over some old writings (pre-blog) to share with you. So please hang in there with me for a little longer.
It's been a little tough writing lately. God's inspiration wasn't coming and I admit to being a little frustrated. I caught myself praying, "Where are you God, remember you wanted me to do this, and promised to help?" As my 5 year old granddaughter Addie says "And then I just said Seriously?"
My feeling of abandonment and I are in good company, great men in the Bible felt the same way. Isaiah says-
While I wait for God as long as he remains in hiding, while I wait and hope for him.I stand my ground and hope,...
Isaiah 8:17 MSG
And David in Psalms -
God, God . . . my God! Why did you dump me miles from nowhere?Doubled up with pain, I call to God all the day long. No answer. Nothing.I keep at it all night, tossing and turningPsalms 22:1-2 MSG
But of course God had not abandoned them, he has not abandoned me- and He won't abandon you either.
We are seeking a relationship with God. Relationships take work, we have to do our part; and I think God is asking us "Will you remain faithful and worship me even when you cannot feel my presence?"
Faith & worship, that's what He is asking for, our faith and love.
