Good morning,
I pray that this finds you in good health and amazing spirits. I pray that your family is well and your faith is strong. I also pray that you will be open to allow the work the Lord is doing in your life to continue unto its completion.
Our God is an amazing God and because of your faith, his work will continue in your life. I know it’s not easy these days. If your life is like mines there are times when the money does not stretch far enough. The family seems to be in turmoil, the news is sad and depressing and the political landscape is scary. If your life is like mines there are times of frustration and deep depression and you don’t have the energy to do much more than the basics every day.
These are the toughest times to pray; or is it just me? It seems like the world gets heavy and you lose focus of what’s important, a prayer life. I know, I get it, you don’t even know what to pray for. You feel like God is not listening or paying attention to what’s happening. People love to say that all things work together for your good to explain why you appear to be spinning out of control. They are NOT WRONG! It appears that God is silent or absent because how could he allow these things to happen? How can a loving Father stand by and see your struggle and DO NOTHING?
He is not standing by, he is not absent, he can’t be. God’s word cannot return to him without accomplishing his goals so if you gave your life to him, he is with you.
”Be strong and be brave. Don’t be afraid of those people because the Lord your God is with you. He will not fail you or leave you.”“

He is not doing nothing, think back to the last time you felt like this? I am assuming you survived because you are STILL HERE!
”I thank God every time I remember you. I thank God for the help you gave me while I told people the Good News. You helped from the first day you believed until now. I am sure that the good work God began in you will continue until he completes it on the day when Jesus Christ comes again.“
