The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them.—PSALM 34:7 (NIV)
But Jesus gave her no reply, not even a word. Then His disciples urged Him to send her away. “Tell her to go away,” they said. “She is bothering us with all her begging.”—Matthew 15:23 (NLT)
Have you ever had that terrible feeling that God is ignoring you? Perhaps it’s a prayer request that has been on your heart for years. After a while it’s tempting to simply give up! Instead ask Him to help you use your struggle to grow your faith.
Heavenly Father, I trust your merciful nature and trust there is always a reason and an answer that fits with Your plan.
