How long?

In such time, we are vulnerable to wrong assumptions and conclusions about life, about God, and about prayer. In Psalm 13, David wrestled with the problem of unanswered prayer. He questioned why the world was so dangerous and pleaded for answers from God.

In the pain and struggle of living without answers, we can always find comfort in our heavenly Father.

Not ours to know the reason why
Unanswered is our prayer,
But ours to wait for God’s own time
To lift the cross we bear.
When we pray, God wraps us in His loving arms.
