See, oftentimes when we pray, we pray out of fear. We beg God to come through for us, but deep down we really don’t believe that He will. Why is that? Could it be we’re disheartened from praying, asking, and receiving no answer? Or could it also be that we’ve lost sight of who God is and who we are?
Where do we draw the line between wanting and waiting, trusting and pursuing, being hopeful but feeling hopeless? It’s a difficult balance. Even in dating relationships, there’s trouble. They end sometimes just as quickly as they begin. And we’re left with a bunch of brokenhearted people, searching to fill the areas of their hearts that have been left empty.
In a way, the things that crush us are the things that smooth our sharp hearts. What hurts us the most is the very thing that God wants to use the most.
"I know breakthrough is coming / by faith I see a miracle." But what about my miracle?
