HAVE YOU LOOKED EVERYWHERE?

From the LORD comes deliverance. 
   May your blessing be on your people. Selah
Psalm 3:8

For some reason it is easy to forget that God is in control and that he is Sovereign over all things. Maybe you are at one of those places in your life where you have exhausted every opportunity, contact and idea you could think of to help get you out of the circumstances you are in. 

I am not going to be pious and tell you to pray because I assume you already have prayed and are praying. The other day my youngest son was in the kitchen looking for some hot sauce. He was actually standing right in front of it and it appeared that he was starring directly at it. But, he wasn't seeing it. Finally, he saw it and grabbed it. Sometimes maybe that is what waiting on God is like. We are looking in the right spot, we just don't see it yet.

I don't know why God makes us wait for deliverance sometimes. He does. He sees the end from the beginning and his desire is to shape us into the image of his Son, Jesus Christ. So, keep looking. 

Father, help us to know you as we wait on you and you shape us into the image of your Son, Jesus Christ. Praise be to you in us today!
