Hey Team!
David Jeremiah tells a story about a shipwreck survivor who washed up on a deserted island. After he had been there a few days, he built himself a hut and prayed to God for rescue. Each day he anxiously looked out over the horizon as he waited for God's delieverance in the form of a passing ship. One day, after returning from a hunt for food, he discovered that his hut was consumed in flames. He was devastated and believed it to be the worst thing that could have happened to him on the island; everything he had was gone. The next day, however, a ship arrived and the captain said, "We saw your smoke signal."
Sometimes, when there seems to be little or no hope, or when things seem to be going against us, it is difficult to believe that God is still with us. But then He unfolds His plan and His provision and reminds us that He had it under control the whole time. Remember, His ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are not our thoughts (Isaiah 55:8).
"Keep praying, but be thankful that God's answers are wiser than your prayers." -- William Culbertson
Hope to see you Sunday!
