This morning dear Lord my heart is heavy with those I know who struggle through life without you. They seek false hope from spiritual things that are not from you. I plead with you to transform their heart, to open their eyes to you God, yet they continue to reject you. I do not understand why you don’t act now to change them.
We know you are able Lord. We know your word has the power to change lives. Yet you remain silent as we plead our case for those we love. Help us to trust in your timing, in your wisdom. Help us to lean on you and not our own ability. Fill us with your peace in the midst of our worries. Thank you for your grace and your patience as you gently teach us to trust you, to follow you, to rest in the wisdom of your timing.
“But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.” – Jeremiah 17:7-8 (NIV)

Amen! Help us to forever lean, forever trust You, Lord!
Yes, help us Lord!
In prayer, we have to be warriors of great faith, but even then we need to display patience while God does His work. We have trust God’s wisdom in all things.
That is such a part of dying to self, trusting God’s wisdom “in all things.” Thanks for the comment. Blessings.
Amazing words that need repeating. Thank for sharing with us.

Everything – all He does, is because He loves us so much.
