Wait and See

The same theme came across the pages of my reading. God is still speaking; still encouraging. He so wants us to understand him in a greater way.

Job 9:10-11 says, "He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted. When he passes me, I cannot see him; when he goes by, I cannot perceive him."

Do we ever stop to think throughout our day, just how present God is? The truth and reality is that he is "ever present". Not a moment in time, is he not there with us. How often worry, doubt and fear blind us from his whereabouts.

Eyes of faith choose to see where God is, and knows that God is everywhere. Even in our most difficult times, when it feels like we have been abandoned, we need to keep our hope in the truth of his word for he is an ever present help in times of trouble. God is all around us even when we feel we are all alone.

When it seems that there are no changes to our circumstances, just stand still and know that God is there. He is doing a work and building a time that will bring about our deliverance, our healing, our provision. Just wait and see.
