God I am crying but I don’t feel you wiping the tears away. My heart is broken
and I don’t feel your mending hands. My body is ailing and I don’t feel your heal-
ing touch. I am drowning in sorrow and I don’t feel comforted. Life’s issues are
consuming me-where are you? When are you going to come to my rescue? God,
I’ve been praying-don’t you hear me? I’ve been reading my word, seeking your
face and turning down my plate-do you see my sacrifice or have you forgotten
about me?
A FATHER’S RESPONSE
My dear child, no I have not forgotten about you. Could it just be that you have
failed to recognize my presence in your life?
Look back on the many times I kept you when you did not want to be kept? Did
you feel my hands of protection then? Or how about the times you went against
my instruction and I yet allowed my blood to cover in your state of disobedience-
how about then-did you feel me near? What about the many nights you lay down
to sleep and failed to acknowledged me. Did you feel my grace and mercy cover-
ing you as you slept through the night? What about the times you forgot to pray
for traveling mercies-did you not see my angels of protection shielding you from
hurt, harm and danger? How about the times when you were in a tight situation
and I became your way of escape! You see my child, I have always been there.
I have been here before you came to be-I will be here for your right now even
forever more. And to answer your question, I hear you.
My child, Learn to live beyond what is ailing you and rest assure that I am there
every step of the way. I love you so much so that I’m aware that there are times
when it is hard to see beyond today, so I went ahead and took care of your
tomorrow. You are my child and I love you with an unconditional love. My
child-dear child can’t you see that I know-I understand and that I always have
you in mind?
