Don't lose heart!  Just because you do not yet see the answer to your prayers, does not mean God does not hear you.  Wait!  The Lord is working.  Waiting time is not wasting time.  Waiting time is time for God to mold us and strengthen us and deepen our relationship with Him.  God is at work.  Trust God!  God will see you through.  God is at work even though you might not be able to see it.  Hear again these encouraging words of the psalmist:
 
I would have lost heart unless I believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!  (Psalm 27.13,14)
 
(prayer of the week)
Lord, help me to see your purposes in waiting.  Help me to renew my strength and lean into your strength.  Mold me and make me so that I may be a blessing to others, through your power and to your glory, Amen.
 
Open your heart to God's awesome love-Pastor TJ
 
(quote of the week)
God uses adversity to chisel us more into the image of Jesus
