If we really understood how God works then I suppose we would have the mind of God. As I recall there was a woman in Genesis who desired the same thing.
During my recent illness I have come to understand that God’s working is not always what I would like or desire. I want instant healing. I want to be pain free. I want my anxiety and depression to be lifted.
Sometimes, He does His healing in stages and sometimes instantly. Sometimes He simply lets me wait it out. But yet I can see one way where God is working.
He sends me encouragement through friends.
Along with many prayers for my healing I have received lovely cards. Each one carries a different message. But there was one card that particularly touched me. I am going to quote it………perhaps it will touch your spirit as it did mine.
“I know that He lives…for I saw Him today in the hand that was offered to me on my way…..In the warmth of a smile that was offered to cheer me…..In the touch of a friend who took time just to hear me.
I heard His voice in the words of support whispered to me when my hope had run short.
Yes, I know that He lives for I see how He sends His love every day… in the caring of friends.”
