What Good Is It?
What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul?—Mark 8:36 (NIV)
O Lord, I am calling to You. Please hurry! Listen when I cry to You for help!—Psalm 141:1 (NLT)
Sometimes when you cry out for help, you experience immediate relief, but other times discomfort lasts much longer than you would like. You might worry that God doesn’t hear you. Rest assured, He is near and His timing is always right.
Heavenly Father, I know You hear my prayers. Teach me to trust Your perfect timing.
