Prayer is Working

Psalm 124:8 (NIV)  Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. 

Do you ever feel caught, stuck in a situation that has no sign of letting up?  Do you feel like your prayers for help are like a broken record, repeating the same plea over and over again?  Often we will have a season where the prayer journal we use lists the same theme day after day.

The things that keep us down, situations that stop us from moving forward often appear too big to handle. Circumstances of life have us stuck in a time-warp and we feel as though we will never escape a desperate situation.  It is time for the big SOS to go out.  It is well past the time for us to call upon God for help and then 'let it go'.  It is time to Submit Or Sink.

Submit to God, just hand it over to Him.  With God there is always a way out and nothing is too difficult for Him. Once we recognize that His timing (which may not be the same as ours), is perfect, and He will come through for us.  He is on our side and He will provide a way out.  By submitting to God's timing we are exhibiting our Trust in Him.

Those mornings when I am praying once again, for that thing that has been on my heart for days or weeks or even months, I am drawn to Romans 8:28 and received comfort from the Words. "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."   That's good enough for me!
