Over the last couple of weeks, I don’t think I have “hung up the phone” with you Lord. Daily, You remind me you hear and always answer each time I call out to You. Sometimes you say yes, sometimes you say no, sometimes you say wait… but you always answer. I know that I have kept you busy with my yearnings, fear and questions lately, Lord. I guess if you were busy, Lord, you would just ignore me so I’d go away. But you always welcome me into your arms.
But yet, Lord, the continuous prayers to you with just the recent Haiti disaster alone must keep you very busy. I just can’t thank you enough for taking the time to respond to my prayers, too, even though the world has so much hurt and anguish.
Yesterday on my drive into work, I looked to the East and saw the magnificent sunrise, shades of blues, hues of pinks and purples colored the sky from one side of the earth to the other. I turned my head to the West and saw the wondrous Colorado Mountains as far as my vision took me. It reminded me of how beautiful your creation is and the care that you take each morning to design such a masterpiece. My car radio tells me there were 900 earthquakes in the past week in Yellowstone. There are rumblings all over this earth lately. Not only rumblings of earthquakes but of wars as well. This makes me nervous, Lord. But yet, you calm me with your presence and remind me that you are Big Enough. Big Enough to remind us each day with your sunrise that a new morning will come and You are still God.
Aren’t you tired yet God? You are so busy with just my pleas alone that sometimes I feel guilty bothering you when so many people need you around the world. I am reminded our God never grows weary. He is always watching over His children. I am a mother of six. Is all my love and care divided over six children so each one has less than if I only gave birth to one? Of course not. How much greater is my Father’s love and care for me.
