IF I SAW MY CHILDREN CRYING I WOULD DO SOMETHING!
.. but if God remains silent who can condemn Him? (Job 34:29a)
Each human longs for a sensible Divine intervention to suffering. Yet a silent Heaven even worries us more. This fundamental temptation is pervasive - to believe our Lord is disinterested, unresponsive or has silently gone fishing; He has not intervened in the mud and malaise of our humanity. This temptation easily blooms inside any person, suffering waters it.
Knowledge screams for 'reason', while faith whispers 'trust'. But, from reflection there is also a season of discovery, for:
It's from the scouring for one set of footprints in yesterday’s sand I looked down and found their trail unbroken into today's sand.
This side of heaven faith is the treasure that gazes at what wet eyes can't.
God does not change. So, He reminds us that the day still returns that contains fresh air as sure the sun rises. Fresh new air has blown our way before.
I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. (Psalm 77:11)
The Last Word:
The One who calls you is faithful.
