CAN YOU NAME THEM ALL? Many o Lord my God are the wonders you have done .The things you planned for us no one can recount to you ; were I speak and tell ofo them, they would be too many to declare. PSALM 40:5(NIV) In a comic collection 'Calvin and Hobbes', Calvin once asked God during summer "Let it snow,please."After hours of waiting the sun was still standing in its intense heat and Calvin didn't see any single snowflake. Realizing that his prayer remained unanswered he shouted to God,"Do you want me to become an atheist!?snow.snow,snow!" Calvin was so upset then when the snow didn't come.Sometomes we Christians are like Calvin, when our prayers are long been unanswered we seem to forget every good thing that God has been doing and giving to us .We tend to forget that Christ died for our sins (Gal.1:4);that we've been blessed with spiritual blessings in heavenly places (Eph.1:3);that God supplies all our needs (Phil.4:19);etc. Friends,God is not sleeping,is He? Each day he upholds everything (Heb.1:3);He gives us a lot of blessing that we can't number.So intead of blaming God for some unanswered prayers ,let us rather praise Him for His bountiful blessings! |
