The presence of troubles and life’s trial often make us ask where is God during this storm in life? Frequently the answers don’t come as fast as we would like or all we hear are crickets. But what we are experiencing is not always what is happening in reality. What is meant by reality is what is happening in God’s world that is the only world we live in. Take a look at your life and many times you will see the Hand of God most certainly brought you through. How else can it be explained? We all can cite times that mere coincidences happened that we cannot explain by our own strength. This is how God’s world works and the fact that the word “coincidence” exists in our language does not mean it does in God’s world. We are told there is a world unseen to us, like microwaves and uv light, that is still working whether we see it or not. So it is with the workings of God’s creation.

What does God say about this? “For I know the right lans I have for you…plans for good and a future and hope. (My paraphrase of Jeremiah 31:33).” The Bible is filled with God’s promises of Him taking care of us! But isn’t our tendency to look at what we are doing instead? How many times do we wonder if we are doing our part? That it’s a type of transaction with our Lord. God’s plans for our lives will supersede any choices we make. We can trust Him. Do we make wrong choices or mistakes or have ill done toward us? Most certainly but God’s world will prevail in our messes. Especially when we have made a shipwreck of our lives is our God working toward a better future. Do I sit back and wait? Maybe. He will open doors and guide us along the path for us for our good and His glory. We can trust Him.

Oh our hearts cry out for the Lord to rescue us and we wonder if He is even listening. He is listening and closer to us then the next plea that leaves our mouth. It is during our valleys that we grow closer in our relationship to Him. He is with us and will never leave us or forsake us. The God of All desires this closer relationship with His masterpieces and we can trust Him. Where are You, God? He is with us every step of the way. We walk to the car- He is with us. We eat a meal and He is with us. We sleep and wake and laugh and cry and He is with us. And He is happy with us and tells us that ALL our pains and tears He will use for His good plan for us. No demons, government, job, loss, death- NOTHING- can separate us from Him. Nothing.
