On my Knees

Once again, I am standing on the sidelines watching the pain of two people I care for very much. It is so hard to stand by and wish you could fix the situation and know that you cannot.

But God can. I have continued to pray earnestly for God's Hand to reach down and solve the problems and heal the hurts. Oh, how I pray for that. He has given me promises in His Word, and I believe them, but while I struggle to "Wait for the Lord", I am so discouraged.

God always answers our prayers. He may not always do so in the timeframe we choose or in the manner we choose, but He always answers. I do know that. But I can't help but pray that He do what is right for these two people, and that what I want for them be the right thing.

I know they are praying as well. They will get through this one way or another, and I pray that in doing so, they will honor God and He will be glorified in the end. I am so thankful that I have the freedom and privilege of praying like this.
