Crying out!

Well today was the first day of school for some toddlers at my school.  It was two and a bit hours of constant crying.  These  kids felt like their parents had abandoned them.  They were calling for their mom and dad for hours.  Sigh.  What a day.  

It got me thinking about how we cry out to God to do something and we too can have this feeling like He is not coming to save us.  But in the end He will come.  We can either cry, rant and rave or just sit patiently and enjoy what is right in front of us.  I guess our faith sometimes needs time to grow and progress.  We need to develop trust and confidence in his faithfulness.  We have logic and the past to look back to.  Has he abandoned me before?  We have the word to turn to too!   What does his word say?  It says he won't disapoint us.  It tells us that he is a good father, protector, provider and so the list goes on and on...

When it's raining we forget there will be sun.  When it's sunny we forget that it could be could but let us not forget all that God has done for us.  Let us not forget his goodness.  

 

Love,
