WAITING FOR AN ANSWER Read: Psalm 9:1-10 Bible in a Year: Isaiah 56–58; 2 Thessalonians 2 Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you. Psalm 9:10 When our was 15, she ran away. She was gone more than 3 weeks. Those were the longest 3 weeks of our lives. We looked everywhere for her and sought help from law enforcement and friends. During those desperate days, my wife and I learned the importance of waiting on God in prayer. We had come to the end of our strength and resources. We had to rely on God. It was on a Father’s Day that we found her. We were in a restaurant parking lot, on our way to dinner, when the phone rang. A waitress at another restaurant had spotted her. Our was only three blocks away. We soon had her home, safe and sound. Waiting on God is never easy, but no matter the end result, it is always worth it. We have to wait on God when we pray. We may not know how or when He will answer, but we can put our hearts constantly before Him in prayer. Sometimes the answers to our prayers don’t come when we would hope. Things may even go from bad to worse. But we have to persevere, keep believing, and keep asking. Waiting is never easy, but the end result, whatever it is, will be worth it. David put it this way: “Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you” (Ps. 9:10). Keep seeking. Keep trusting. Keep asking. Keep praying. What’s on your heart that you need to talk to God about today? Will you trust Him and keep praying? Time spent in prayer is always time well spent.
