Blessings from God seem to come and go. Sometimes we see His hand; sometimes we wonder where He is. So often when we"ve been patiently enduring something or someone for a long time, we start to wonder if the promise we"re hoping for is for us. Do we trust God only as far as we can see Him? Regardless of our feelings and our sight, God is working; and we can trust that He will fulfill His promises. Maybe they will not be fulfilled in the way we envision, but if not, a better way.
God cannot and will not lie. What He says, He will do. To come up with his own solution didn"t help Abraham. It won't help us either because God's way is always best. A ptomise God makes is as good as done though it might take ages to fulfill. So when you and I patiently endure because of a promise He has made, we can know with certainty that we will obtain a blessing.
And so, after had patiently endured, he obtained the promise. Hebrews 6:15
I thought you might could use this in you meetings.
Love ya.
Mom
