“Therefore, prepare your minds for action, keep sober in spirit, fix your hope completely on the grace to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” 1 Peter 1:13
Even those who maintain a close, intimate relationship with the Lord are not immune to disappointments, obstacles, challenges, struggles, and feelings of hopelessness. In fact, at times, God allows us to face impossible circumstances in order to try our faith. It is in these times of adversity that motivates us to seek Him, and when we do, He faithfully strengthens us.
God knows every emotion, need, and desire we have. He cares when we face difficult times and grow weary. He hears our cries and understands our needs. He knows exactly what it will take to bring us into a more intimate relationship with Him. There is nothing that is hidden from our Lord. It is up to us to take our cares and thoughts to Him in prayer. We are to ask, receive and then believe that he answers. Sometimes we by-pass the “believe” part. We are to be strong and believe that we receive. Our lives are to reflect His values and His ways as our faith becomes stronger each day.
