Often times, things get rough and many get dismayed over those things. These times, we forget the good times, those times when we think we are untouchable and can do anything. However, once these rough times come, many of us do the last thing we think of; we call on God. Many don't search for Him when things are going smooth and easy; it takes a major downfall or hardship for those to begin to seek out God's help and compassion. It is quite disheartening the more I think about this. Then, there are those out there, a large number of folks who do not even believe that God exists and those folks, I am saddened about. I often wonder what would happen if God quit trying and just turned away. I know I how I would feel and would probably give up if nobody believed in me. I say to those of us who know the truth and believe, pray... Pray for those who do not believe and those who do not even know of the great and glorious things that our God has done; we must share His wonderful word to everyone.
When the tough times come, don't lose faith or hope; just look to God. God will give strength to you in the troubled time as well as those times when we don't think we need Him for anything.
I wish everyone the best and I look forward to being able to post on a regular basis now that I have settled in here in Iraq. Take care everyone and may God bless each of you in all that you do.
VERSE
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:31
