Does it ever seem like nothing is going right and your whole world is shaken up? We all have that time in our lives when everything seems to be crashing down around you. It seems like when you get your life straight, something comes and messes everything up. It may be hard to believe, but that’s when you draw closer to God the most. It’s the time when you can’t take it anymore, and you drop down to your knees before Him, crying out, “God, help me.”
People think that God doesn’t hear them. Like when you pray for something you really want and you don’t get it? Or when you pray for healing, but you’re not healed? Because of moments like this, God helps us build character. It helps us build up our faith in Jesus, helps us figure out His will, and our patience for things we are expecting.
God’s holding your world in his hands. It’s like a snow globe, when your life seems like there isn’t any meaning and it’s dull and sad, God can take it and just shake it a little, and let blessings fall down like snow, bringing joy and happiness to you, just like snow. So don’t worry about the bills getting paid, the food you don’t have, and the clothes you need. You have Jesus, and He’s the omnipotent, almighty God who has control over everything in this world.
Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?… for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
~Matthew 6:31-32
